Digging around bugs reported on bugs.launchpad, i've seen a bunch of reports
rised by users (mostly new comers i suppose) not knowing about versions having
reached EndOfLife.
Most of these reports was against "solftware-center" : like, "got server error
500" or "i does not understand why software-center cant download even if my
network works with the browser". So launchpad get flooded by invalid reports.
Users have to be aware of such a case : the different tools
(installer/updater) should detect the different EOL version, and be able
to display a popup message saying something like "that version is no
more available, choose a newer ubuntu release"; on the other hand Apport
also need to refuse such reports.
Related packages : apt, synaptic, software-center (for the gnome world;
but i suppose the other DEs are also concerned)
