git ubuntu and https://salsa.debian.org/debian/distro-info-data/-/commit/f5f0d4ee1c46d44a495a5f86024e47112eff5790 say: "Commit https://salsa.debian.org/debian/distro-info-data/-/commit/c84eef6eda6c87e0bd5229e6202385202c8c440a moved the end date of Expanded Security Maintenance (ESM) from Friday to Sunday. Restore the previous end date of 2019-04-26, which is exactly seven years after the
release."
