Bug description:
  During update after release 'zesty' 'end of life' strange error
  appear:

  E:The repository 'http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu stable Release'
  does not have a Release file.

  This error prevent upgrade process. There is no entry like 'http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu stable Release' in my 'sources.list'. I have no idea where this entry comes from. During regular packages update try, only appears error messages directly related to 'end of life' release state. No error like above. I am not sure, but it seems like 'http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu stable Release' is wrongly formatted and have no idea where this comes from as all. Here is my sources list (as is now). As could be seen from the sources list my install is from 2014. Over the years I make upgrade after 'end of life' release few times without any problems. Now is the first time I have such issue.
  Thanks in advance!
