try checking /etc/update-maneger/release-upgrades (I know /etc/update-maneger/ is the correct directory, I might have the file name off).  The setting Prompt should be set to "normal" and not "lts."  Otherwise, you won't get a valid release until lucid is "Officially" published in April.

My understanding is that if you wish to upgrade from a stable distribution to a development release, you should append the -d flag to either do-release-upgrade or update-manager (which ever update method you prefer).
