Title:
  update-manager disables third-party repositories with suite suffixes

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired
Status in “update-manager-core” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager-core

  This is a sort of followup to bug #147080.

  If I set Sources.AllowThirdParty=yes in an /etc/update-manager
  /release-upgrades.d/foo.cfg file, that works great for repositories
  where the pocket name matches the Ubuntu release I'm running exactly
  (i.e. "jaunty" or "lucid")

  However, we also have a second pocket that we use for testing and
  development - we took inspiration from Ubuntu and called ours "jaunty-
  proposed" et al. Because the suite name in the sources.list entry
  doesn't exactly match the name of the Ubuntu release, update-manager
  forcibly disables that repository.

  It would be excellent if update-manager could deal with sources.list
  entries that match /^suite/ instead of just /^suite$/
