Let's stick to the following, please: over 2,300 packages in Ubuntu Main and over 23,000 packages in Ubuntu Universe, meaning over 25,000 packages in total.
It should work for every LTS from Xenial forward. Remember that: Standard Ubuntu LTS gives you 5 years of coverage for Main, esm-infra gives you additional 5 years (10 years total), and esm-apps gives you 10 years of security coverage for Universe. both esm-infra and esm-apps are available with subscriptions (free and paid) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to software-properties in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1989959 Title: Incorrect ESM coverage information Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Software Properties says that Extended Security Maintenance provides security updates for over 30000 Ubuntu packages, see lines 1269 and 1346 in data/gtkbuilder/main.ui. According to https://ubuntu.com/16-04, Canonical provides extended security maintenance for binary packages that reside in the "main" Ubuntu repository, which contains about 7000 architecture-specific packages depending on the Ubuntu release. Moreover, ESM is only provided for a part of packages, not for all packages in the "main" repository.
