[Bug 1511783] Re: release upgrader can create a too minimal sources.list

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-release-upgrader - 1:16.04.3

---------------
ubuntu-release-upgrader (1:16.04.3) xenial; urgency=medium

  * DistUpgrade/DistUpgradeController.py: if a BaseMetaPkg has no origins,
    because an Ubuntu mirror has been deactivated, then create a useful
    sources.list file that parallels the one for the deactivated mirror.
    (LP: #1511783)
  * utils/update_mirrors.py: Instead of just appending new mirrors to the
    mirrors.cfg file also remove mirrors that are no longer valid.
    (LP: #1463680)

Title:
  release upgrader can create a too minimal sources.list

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In the event that the mirror in your /etc/apt/sources.list file is no
  longer an official mirror of Ubuntu, the release upgrade process will
  create a new sources.list file for you with only main enabled for the
  release to which you are upgrading. This will create a poor upgrade
  experience. This will need to be fixed before or with the fix for bug
  1463680.
