Public bug reported:

In the general hook for ubuntu there is the following code:

    log = '/var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log'
    if os.path.exists(log):
        mtime = os.stat(log).st_mtime
        human_mtime = time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d', time.gmtime(mtime))
        delta = time.time() - mtime

        # Would be nice if this also showed which release was originally 
installed
        report['UpgradeStatus'] = 'Upgraded to %s on %s (%d days ago)' % 
(release_codename, human_mtime, delta / 86400)
    else:
        report['UpgradeStatus'] = 'No upgrade log present (probably fresh 
install)'

This does no checking of main.log to see if the upgrade was actually
successful, so if someone is reporting a bug about a failed upgrade of
ubuntu-release-upgrader they'll have a confusing 'UpgradeStatus' of
today for the previous release.
