Public bug reported: I first stumbled across a user reporting on Ubuntu forums that Ubuntu Trusty now offers a direct upgrade to Vivid if "notify of new release" is changed from LTS only to "any new release". Unless something has changed recently I believe that is an improper upgrade.
See attached screenshot for verification.
