Title:
  dist-upgrade not proposed, or proposed once and forgotten

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On one host (from which I'm filing this bug), I upgraded from 10.04
  LTS to 10.10.  After reboot (so now running 10.10), I couldn't get
  update-manager (using the gui, as launched from unity) to propose the
  upgrade to 11.04.

  On another host, update-manager showed me the 10.04 --> 10.10 upgrade,
  I decided to reboot before doing the upgrade.  After reboot, update-
  manager (using the gui, as launched from unity) wouldn't again offer
  the upgrade.

  In both cases, this was solved easily enough by update-manager -h (in
  terminal) to see that update-manager -p should work.  And it did.
  But surely it is a bug that the dist-upgrade wasn't proposed directly
  in both cases.
