This bug was exposed by the SRU of distro-info-data to all series, which
has added bionic to /usr/share/distro-info/ubuntu.csv as '18.04 LTS'.

This is a bug in juju, which is picking up a not-yet-released LTS from
this file (note: 'distro info --lts' gets this right, juju gets it
wrong).  This is acknowledged, and the juju team is working on fixing
juju.

However, that fix will come in the form of an updated juju-core 2.2.6
release. 2.2.4 is currently already in the SRU stream for xenial, and
the plan is to push 2.2.6 to the SRU queue on top of this, rather than
provide an update to juju 2.0.2 which is the current released version in
xenial-updates.

As a result, while the juju bug will be fixed upstream quickly, it will
take some time for the fix to reach all the affected users.

I am proposing to work around this issue in distro-info-data by
temporarily removing the 'LTS' tag on 18.04 from ubuntu.csv.  This
should have no practical impact on other programmatic consumers of this
data in stable Ubuntu releases, and will both unblock existing users of
juju versions having this bug and let other tools that need to know
about the current devel release work correctly.
