[Impact]
After upgrading from 12.10 to 13.04 users are presented with a dialog
indicating that 13.04 is available and to upgrade it. This is confusing and
provides a bad user experience.
[Test Case]
1) upgrade a system from 12.10 to 13.04 and reboot
2) observe a message regarding 13.04 being a new release and available
To test this with the ubuntu-release-upgrader from raring-proposed you
will need to upgrade via the following command:
'do-release-upgrade -f DistUpgradeViewGtk3 -p'
The -p is necessary to ensure that you use the dist-upgrader from
-proposed. You can verify that you have it by check /var/log/dist-
- upgrade/main.log for version 0.192.11. In the event that you try -p and
- do not get this version of ubuntu-release-upgrader it means the meta-
- release-proposed file has not been updated for the 13.04.
+ upgrade/main.log for version 0.192.11.
Using the new version of the release upgrader after the release you
- should do receive a notification about 13.04 being available.
+ should not receive a notification about 13.04 being available.
[Regression Potential]
Low as the release-upgrade-available file is only removed upon completion of
the upgrade.
Running ubuntu server as guest OS within virtualbox on a Windows host
Yesterday I was greeting with the following prompt;
"New release '13.04' available
Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it."
Which I successfully ran. Every reboot thereafter, however, I am
continually prompted with the same text.
Running "do-release-upgrade" therein returns;
"Checking for a new Ubuntu release
No new release found"
