Bug Description
I probably should have filed this bug report about a week ago but I assumed that both Saucy -> Trusty and Precise -> Trusty release upgrades were just temporarily delayed due to bugs I encountered during iso/upgrade testing on the 23rd. Regardless upgrades to Trusty are still not available as of this moment either via update-manager or by using do-release-upgrade unless -d is invoked.
Saucy -> Trusty upgrades are still broken due to bug #1347721 but the release notes fail to mention that. Can that process even be fixed now that Saucy is EOL? The release notes should provide the correct info.
The release notes say nothing about Precise -> Trusty upgrades even though bug #1347964 has been fixed. I verified that myself and did encounter bug #1351414 but it's truly a corner issue that should effect very few users and is easily resolved post-upgrade.
In the original Trusty release announcement we did say, "Users of 12.04 LTS will be offered the automatic upgrade when 14.04.1 LTS is released, which is scheduled for July 24th".
So we probably need to liaise with Michael Vogt and the release team?
Thanks in advance.
Just thought to add a link to the release notes:
