[Bug 1605259] Re: do-release-upgrade --sandbox fails

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package update-manager - 1:17.10.1

---------------
update-manager (1:17.10.1) artful; urgency=medium

  [ Steve Langasek ]
  * ubuntu-support-status: instead of checking the Release timestamp in
    the releases file for every single package on the system, get the
    release date from distro-info-data because it will always be the same.
    This speeds up the script by > 50% in testing.

  [ Brian Murray ]
  * update-manager: Clarify that the "-d" switch is only for upgrading from
    the latest supported release to the development release, not any release.
    (LP: #1700829)
  * Remove --sandbox (aufs support) as it has been broken for some time and
    was rather unused. (LP: #1605259)
