[Bug 1888916] Re: upgrade from bionic to focal a server with molly-guard moves back sources.list to bionic entries

[Patricia Domingues]

Ok. I see what I might have made wrong: trying to resurrect the session (pressing 'r') 
I was able to reproduce it just this way:

After it asks for upgrade:
``` 
If you select 'y' the system will be restarted.                                                                                                                                                                                               
                                                                     
Continue [yN] y                                                              
I: molly-guard: reboot is always molly-guarded on this system.       
Please type in hostname of the machine to reboot:                            
Good thing I asked; I won't reboot upgteste ...

after that sources.list had bionic entries:
```
# See http://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes for how to upgrade to
# newer versions of the distribution.
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports bionic main restricted
# deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports bionic main restricted
...
```

I understand it may invalidate the bug.

Title:
  upgrade from bionic to focal a server with molly-guard moves back
  sources.list to bionic entries

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Groovy:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've upgraded a server via `do-release-upgrade` from Ubuntu Bionic to
  Focal, with molly-guard installed on it - molly-guard configured to
  always ask for the hostname.

  After it has finished:

  ```
  System upgrade is complete.

  Restart required

  To finish the upgrade, a restart is required. 
  If you select 'y' the system will be restarted. 

  Continue [yN] y
  I: molly-guard: reboot is always molly-guarded on this system.
  Please type in hostname of the machine to reboot:

  ```

  It doesn't alert you it was restoring original state of sources.list. 
  After rebooting the system and it came back up showing `Welcome to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS`, I've just noticed it was pointing out to bionic instead of focal installing a package.
