[Bug 1814976] Please test proposed package

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Brian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted distro-info-data into trusty-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/distro-
info-data/0.18ubuntu0.11 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-trusty to verification-done-trusty. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-trusty. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  The ubuntu.csv file from distro-info-data contains a column for eol-
  server which one can then use ubuntu-distro-info to display the days
  until that milestone is reached. However, that column is empty for
  many Ubuntu releases (because there isn't a distinction between EoL
  for desktop and servers anymore) which leads to the following
  confusing situation. Additionally, one can't have an empty column in
  distro-info-data so adding an eol-esm column (bug 1808038) for LTS
  releases depends on eol-server being populated.

  [Test Case]
   $ ubuntu-distro-info --supported -r --days=eol-server
  14.04 LTS (unknown)
  16.04 LTS (unknown)
  18.04 LTS (unknown)
  18.10 (unknown)
  19.04 (unknown)

  With the version of distro-info and distro-info-data from -proposed
  there will be a number of days displayed for the LTS releases e.g.:

  16.04 LTS 777

  [Regression Potential]
  There isn't any we are just populating an existing column in the csv file. 

  [Original Description]
  I'd suggest modifying ubuntu.csv so that the eol-server column contains the same date as the eol column for all LTS releases which is consistent with the existing releases that eol-server.
