** Description changed:
I would expect this Lubuntu 18.10 system to have almost no packages
still supported, instead I get 69.2% still with support (until July
2019)
This is a VM (Lubuntu 18.10 x86, used only for testing purposes)
+ but I got the same results on x86 hardware, plus amd64/x86_64

- I realize this is a EOL release (18.10), however that's sort of the point, as
the system reports itself as still with support because of this bug. I don't
have to my knowledge any 18.10 x86_64 systems still to test here, though I
could install one on request. I believe I still have a x86 18.10 system on
real hardware if you'd like me to look there too.
