do-release-manager handles some issues which can't be handled trough
packages. For example, /etc/fstab isn't a part of any package, so (iirc)
device
What is wrong with updating sources.list and simnply doing apt-get dist-upgrade?

If locales would support locale named 'old-releases.', then exporting
LANG="old-releases." and running do-relea

That description there is wrong. I'll contact someone to fix it. The
'cookbook' I described works, it's not a random guess. It's a conclusion
on basis of a code review of update-manager

Oh, lol:
1. rm -rf /tmp/tmp*
2. run do-release-upgrade (it will fail)
3. rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/prerequists-sources.list
4. cd /tmp/tmp(some random string)
5. edit prerequists-source

So, the workaround would be:
1. rm -rf /tmp/tmp*
2. run do-release-upgrade (it will fail)
3. rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/prerequists-sources.list
4. cd /tmp/(some random str
