Public bug reported:

Per:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/1204_HWE_EOL#A1._Install_12.04.5_HWE_.28Trusty_kernel.2BAC8-graphics.29,
starting with Ubuntu 12.04.4 (as reported by `lsb_release -d`) I run
`hwe-support-status` and it tells me to:

sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-trusty linux-image-generic-lts-
trusty

I do this, then reboot, yet it still says:

(matt@case) ~$ lsb_release -d
Description:    Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS

Not the 12.04.5 which I expect.

Further, per the chart in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/1204_HWE_EOL#FAQ, I
should be running the trusty graphics stack as well, yet none of that
was listed in the apt-get install line. Verifying this:

(matt@case) ~$ dpkg -l | grep trusty
ii  linux-generic-lts-trusty                                    3.13.0.32.28    
                                    Generic Linux kernel image and headers
ii  linux-headers-generic-lts-trusty                            3.13.0.32.28    
                                    Generic Linux kernel headers
ii  linux-image-generic-lts-trusty                              3.13.0.32.28    
                                    Generic Linux kernel image

None of the trusty xorg packages are installed.

I believe that the commands generated by hwe-support-status are
incomplete to accomplish its stated goal.
