Public bug reported:
The file DistUpgrade.cfg.trusty, which is included in the dist-upgrade
tarball, has Demotions set to demotions.cfg instead of
demotions.cfg.trusty. The demotions.cfg file contains demotions from W
-> X and demotions.cfg.trusty contains demotions from T -> X.
Subsequently, some packages that were demoted between Trusty and Wily
are not being considered as demotions for release upgrades to X and will
be left installed on systems.
Test Case
---------
1) Install consolekit on a Trusty system
2) Run 'sudo do-release-upgrade --frontend DistUpgradeViewText'
3) Press 'd' for details when prompted
4) Observe consolekit does not appear in the list of "No longer supported"
packages
To test the upgrade using the dist-upgrade tarball from proposed change
step 2 to "sudo do-release-upgrade -p --frontend DistUpgradeViewText".
