[Bug 1173209] Re: Prompted about New Release for 13.04 again after already done dist-upgrade and newstart

[Kyle Skrinak]

Does the file exist? Yes
> file /var/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-available
/var/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-available: ASCII text

Does release-upgrade-motd remove this file?
> /usr/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-motd
New release '13.04' available.
Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it.

> file /var/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-available
/var/lib/ubuntu-release-upgrader/release-upgrade-available: ASCII text

SO, running release-upgrade-motd doesn't not remove the file; BUT,
manually removing that file removes the message at startup

Title:
  Prompted about New Release for 13.04 again after already done dist-
  upgrade and newstart

Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Running ubuntu server as guest OS within virtualbox on a Windows host

  Yesterday I was greeting with the following prompt;

  "New release '13.04' available
  Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it."

  Which I successfully ran. Every reboot thereafter, however, I am
  continually prompted with the same text.

  Running "do-release-upgrade" therein returns;

  "Checking for a new Ubuntu release
  No new release found"
