[Dmitrijs Ledkovs]

Possibly it should support multiple release files and try one after the
other.

Title:
  EOL release and old-releases.ubuntu.com migration

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  When a release is end-of-live it moves to old-releases.ubuntu.com

  Update-manager should be able to gracefully handle this. Here is what is required:
  1. when the sources.list points to old-releases.ubuntu.com check if the upgrade goes to archive.u.c or old-releases.u.c
  2. if the user is running a EOL release and has not swtiched the sources.list to old-releases.u.c detect that
  3. if the user is using a mirror that has dropped a older release but archive.u.c still has it, switch to archive.u.c
