Public bug reported:

I have recently tried installing Ubuntu Server 18.04.1 using the
“traditional” or “alternate” installer image available at
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/18.04.1/release/ubuntu-18.04.1
-server-amd64.iso .

During task selection, I have chosen LAMP, PostgreSQL, OpenSSH and
"Basic Ubuntu Server" as well as "Standard system". Networking was on
during the installation.

When the newly installed system booted, it announced itself as version 16.04.5.
I had to upgrade it to 18.04.1 using do-release-upgrade.

Although the ISO image contains 18.04 packages (e.g., postgresql version
10), the /etc/lsb-release file of the running installer contains
“DISTRIB_RELEASE=16.04”. On the installed system /var/log/installer/lsb-
release also contains “16.04”. I can upload full contents of
/var/log/installer if necessary.

In a strange coincidence, there is no 16.04.5 amd64 installer in
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/16.04/release/.
