[Bug 1080131] Re: update manager doesn't find 12.10 upgrade

[Paul Abrahams]

Here it is, but I don't think you'll find any gold in them thar' hills:

root at morchella:/home/pa# cat /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
# Default behavior for the release upgrader.

[DEFAULT]
# Default prompting behavior, valid options:
#
#  never  - Never check for a new release.
#  normal - Check to see if a new release is available.  If more than one new
#           release is found, the release upgrader will attempt to upgrade to
#           the release that immediately succeeds the currently-running
#           release.
#  lts    - Check to see if a new LTS release is available.  The upgrader
#           will attempt to upgrade to the first LTS release available after
#           the currently-running one.  Note that this option should not be
#           used if the currently-running release is not itself an LTS
#           release, since in that case the upgrader won't be able to
#           determine if a newer release is available.
prompt=normal

Title:
  update manager doesn't find 12.10 upgrade

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

Bug description:
  I'm running Kubuntu 12.04.1 on three machines.  On none of them can I
  upgrade to 12.10.   I never see the notifier, and apt-get dist-upgrade
  finds nothing.  Here's what demonstrates the point:

  root at morchella:/home/pa/.config/synaptiks# cat /etc/lsb-release 
  DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
  DISTRIB_RELEASE=12.04
  DISTRIB_CODENAME=precise
  DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS"
  root at morchella:/home/pa/.config/synaptiks# do-release-upgrade -c
  Checking for a new Ubuntu release
  No new release found

  I've set the upgrade prompt to Normal; that doesn't help at all.

  All three machines have their software sources list created by Ubuntu
  Software Sources, so there's a lot of stuff on it.
