[Bug 894396] Re: man do-release-upgrade: Nothing about config file: /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades

[Frédéric Grosshans]

As of Ubuntu 14.10, the bug is still present, and it took some time for
me to find the information (which is this bug report).

I would change add a sentence in the manpage description, changing it to
:

Upgrade  the  operating  system  to the latest release from the command-
line.  The choice of the release (LTS or normal) is defined in the file
: /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades. This is the preferred command if
the machine has no graphic environment or if the machine is to be
upgraded over a  remote connection.

  I tried to remember how to upgrade out of LTS cycle (From Lucid to Maveric) and looked:
  man do-release-upgrade
  No info about config file. See more: update-manager
  (Or maybe there could be commandline switch for do that.)

  man update-manager
  No info about config file.
