Given that this entry appears in the sources.list file when it is being
examined, it must have been added fairly early.

2015-10-30 09:18:14,158 DEBUG entry 'deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu wily main' updated to new dist

Title:
  release upgrader can create a too minimal sources.list

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In the event that the mirror in your /etc/apt/sources.list file is no
  longer an official mirror of Ubuntu, the release upgrade process will
  create a new sources.list file for you with only main enabled for the
  release to which you are upgrading. This will create a poor upgrade
  experience. This will need to be fixed before or with the fix for bug
  1463680.
