Title:
  Cannot upgrade from quantal (12.10) to raring (13.04)

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “update-manager” source package in Quantal:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Users on Ubuntu 12.10 cannot upgrade to the development version of 13.04 (though, this bug does not stop them from upgrading to the released version of 13.04).

  [Reproduction Steps]
  0) Be on Ubuntu 12.10
  1) update-manager -d
  2) Notice that while it offers an upgrade choice, clicking upgrade does nothing.

  [Regression Potential]
  I can't think of any, but this patch only affects the release upgrade code path.

  [Analysis]
  This was caused by my refactoring during the quantal development cycle.  The "-d" is not being passed on to ubuntu-release-upgrader, causing it to do nothing when called (at least during raring development).

  I am looking into it.
