Title:
  update-manager should support HWE EOL transition

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “update-notifier” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “update-manager” source package in Precise:
  Fix Released
Status in “update-notifier” source package in Precise:

Bug description:
  In ubuntu 12.04 parts of the older HardwareEnablementStack is going
  out of support soon. update-manager should support the transition to
  the new HardwareEnablementStack (HWE).

  Impact:
  - all user with of ubuntu 12.04.{2,3,4} are affected and need the update to have a good transition

  Testing:
  - install 12.04.2 (or .3, .4)
  - run update-manager
  - verify that nothing special happens (except for updates being available :)
  - install update-manager from precise-proposed
  - start update-manager and verify that a "new hardware support" label becomes available with a install button
  - log into a console and verify that you get a message after login that you need to upgrade your hardware support
  - run ubuntu-support-status and verify that it displays information about the new HWE support
  - click the button, verify that information is available and click install
  - after the install is finished, reboot and verify that update-manager does not display anything about the hardware again
  - verify that ubuntu-support-status and /etc/motd do not contain references to the HWE anymore

  Potential risk:
  - if the new update-manager is buggy this may prevent users from getting updates, so we need to test this carefully
