[Bug 2065818] Re: No way to assume yes for do-release-upgrade

[Jonas Gamao]

In our work environment, we have a local apt mirror setup for everything
(Ubuntu, HP Anywhere, AMD GPU drivers, Firefox, Chrome)

I'm essentially just working on an ansible script that would run the do-
release-upgrade tool (i.e. removing proprietary AMD driver).

I haven't had the best of luck with just changing the repo's distro
release from focal to jammy

Title:
  No way to assume yes for do-release-upgrade

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This session appears to be running under ssh. It is not recommended 
  to perform a upgrade over ssh currently because in case of failure it 
  is harder to recover. 

  If you continue, an additional ssh daemon will be started at port 
  '1022'. 
  Do you want to continue? 

  Continue [yN] y

  Starting additional sshd

  To make recovery in case of failure easier, an additional sshd will 
  be started on port '1022'. If anything goes wrong with the running 
  ssh, you can still connect to the additional one. 
  If you run a firewall, you may need to temporarily open this port. As 
  this is potentially dangerous it's not done automatically. You can 
  open the port with e.g.: 
  'iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 1022 -j ACCEPT'

  Updating repository information

  No valid mirror found

  While scanning your repository information no mirror entry for the 
  upgrade was found. This can happen if you run an internal mirror or 
  if the mirror information is out of date. 

  Do you want to rewrite your 'sources.list' file anyway? If you choose 
  'Yes' here it will update all 'focal' to 'jammy' entries. 
  If you select 'No' the upgrade will cancel. 

  
  This is the task in Ansible:
  - name: Run do-release-upgrade
    ansible.builtin.command: /usr/bin/do-release-upgrade -f DistUpgradeViewNonInteractive

  it just quits if I do that
