Title:
  update-notifier tells me to upgrade from 12.04.4 LTS to 14.04 LTS
  (because of HWE), but that release is not found

Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “update-notifier” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I logged into my server, I was greeted with this message:

  """
  Your current Hardware Enablement Stack (HWE) is going out of support
  on 08/07/14.  After this date security updates for critical parts (kernel
  and graphics stack) of your system will no longer be available.

  For more information, please see:
  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/1204_HWE_EOL

  To upgrade to a supported (or longer supported) configuration:

  * Upgrade from Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS by running:
  sudo do-release-upgrade 

  OR

  * Install a newer HWE version by running:
  sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-trusty linux-image-generic-lts-trusty

  and reboot your system.
  """

  Now, that is no problem, so I ran:
    % sudo do-release-upgrade
  and got this message:
  """
  Checking for a new Ubuntu release
  No new release found
  """
