(Get the code!)
Cascokid - follow the links at the bottom of the email notification, and log in to launchpad (use the "remind me" tool if you have forgotten your login). Then in the menu on the top left, there is an "Unsubscribe" button that will do the magic for you.
I will second Tzvetan and say that I view this as a serious defect that may turn people away from Ubuntu and possibly from Linux if that is their user experience. While I would be confident to apply such patches, I say so knowing that I am a software engineer with many years experience coding and using nix variants. To the average user, that simply does not apply, and it will frustrate them. It is worth reading the top of the defect and noting that although in the initial posting it complains about being out memory and the upgrade actually appears to have succeeded, later comments expressed machines no longer booting or failing to connect to the network.
I would go as far as strongly suggesting that the KDE release of Gutsy should not be recommended as an upgrade path from Feisty (or earlier) without a reinstall until this is fixed.
