When rewriting sources.list entries the release-upgrader doesn't check to see if the distribution to which the system is being upgraded is supported by the archive / PPA. This results in the following error message:
A problem occurred during the update. This is usually some sort of
network problem, please check your network connection and retry.
E:The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu
cosmic Release' does not have a Release file.
If the release-upgrader were to actually check if the release were supported then that specific sources entry could be disabled and the upgrade may be able to proceed. |

[Test Case]
The test case involves adding a PPA which doesn't have a release file for the release to which you are upgrading for upgrading to cosmic we can use the team-xbmc ppa.
1) sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
2) do-release-upgrade --frontend DistUpgradeViewText
3) Observe the error message re "does not have a Release file". |

3) Observe the error message re "does not have a Release file" and the upgrade cancel.
With the version of the release upgrader from -proposed you will instead see the following message: "Some third party entries in your sources.list were disabled.". Then the release upgrade will proceed to the calculation phase, you can quit the upgrade after the calculation and check /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log for the following:
DEBUG entry '# deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu bionic main' was disabled (no Release file)
[Regression Potential]
It seems like an oversight that this part of the release-upgrader never did check for Release files and that this is the right thing to do. Its possible that people who were not allowed to upgrade, because they had PPAs without support for the release to which they wanted to upgrade, are now allowed to upgrade and somehow run in to an upgrade failure e.g. a failure to calculate the upgrade. That seems better and more informative than not allowing them to upgrade at all though. |
