<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Brian is right here -- it just means
Jackson is running the same release he originally installed --
he's never upgraded it to a newer version. For instance, my box
has been upgraded each since precise I think (I'm on raring now),
but if I were to re-install using a raring cd right now, I would
get the same message. For bug reporting purposes, those upgrades
could be interacting with something that got changed or removed,
or reset, etc, during the upgrade, as opposed to a fresh install.
You guys have seen those types of bugs before :-)<br>

Right, so to be clear this is by design and this are working properly.
which is causing people to ask. Maybe an explanation of this is needed
instead of "oh, this is working"?
The people who actually take the time out to test do deserve a better
answer.

The UpgradeStatus field in your apport report is an attempt to determine
if the system being reported about has upgraded from one release of
Ubuntu to another. This can be helpful in determining factors that may
affect bugs.
Perhaps somebody would like to take the initiative and document fields
commonly found in apport reports. One way to get started doing this
would be to review a crash report in /var/crash or create a bug report
using 'apport-cli' with the --save option. However, any apport package
hook can add arbitrary keys and values to apport reports so any list
would not be comprehensive. Regardless, if someone wants to do this
I'll be happy to answer any questions regarding keys and their meanings.
