** Description changed:
I'm working on a update to software-properties in 16.04 to support the
- Ubuntu Pro tab. This work has already been released to >=18.04 (e.g.
- check Pro commits to https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-
- dev/software-properties/+git/software-properties/+ref/ubuntu/bionic),
- but Xenial didn't receive a backport. Could you please procure that?
-
- The commit in question is "Show extended security maintenance status"
- which adds:
+ Ubuntu Pro tab. That work was already released to >=18.04, containing,
+ for example, in commit "Show extended security maintenance status"[1]:
```python
def current_distro():
- distro = aptsources.distro.get_distro()
- di = distro_info.UbuntuDistroInfo()
- releases = di.get_all(result="object")
- [...]
+ distro = aptsources.distro.get_distro()
+ di = distro_info.UbuntuDistroInfo()
+ releases = di.get_all(result="object")
+ [...]
```
- This was added in distro-info 0.15 and 0.16.
+ That is functionality introduced in versions 0.15 and 0.16 of distro-
+ info, for which Xenial didn't receive a backport yet.
+
+ Test Plan
+ ---------
+
+ 1. Install the update.
+ 2. Verify that running this in a shell prints a list of a correct list of EOL date (in YY-MM-DDDD format) and distribution name to the standard output:
+
+ --->
+ python3 <<EOF | sort -n
+ import distro_info
+ for d in distro_info.UbuntuDistroInfo().get_all(result="object"):
+ print(d.eol, d.codename)
+ EOF
+ <---
+
+ Regression potential
+ --------------------
+
+ If something were wrong with this update, reverse dependencies could
+ misidentify a given release, e.g. by incorrectly assessing a user
+ release as supported or no longer supported, LTS or non-LTS etc..
