Hello Dean, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ubuntu-release-upgrader into cosmic-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/ubuntu-release-upgrader/1:18.10.11.6 in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-cosmic to verification-done-cosmic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-cosmic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  If there is a network hiccup at the right moment it's possible that some 
sources.list entries will be disabled when a release upgrade is calculated and 
then people could upgrade with surprising results e.g. universe being missing.
  
  [Test Case]
  This is somewhat convoluted as we need to create the network error only when 
a specific line is is being tested by the dist-upgrader.
  
  1) Use a system on xenial or bionic and ensure prompt is set appropriately 
(lts for xenial, normal for bionic)
  2) Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file so that universe is a separate line 
from main, restricted, and multiverse
  3) Run do-release-upgrade
  4) Cancel the release upgrade
  5) cd to /tmp/ubuntu-release-upgrader-$tmpname
  6) edit DistUpgradeController.py with the attached patch which will cause the 
url check for the universe line to fail
  7) run 'sudo ./$release-upgrading-to'
  8) wait until you receive the message regarding quantities of packages to 
install, upgrade, etc
  9) look at /etc/apt/sources.list file and notice that the lines with universe 
are disabled
  
  With the release-upgrader from -proposed you'll need to follow the same
  steps and you'll notice that the lines with universe are not disabled.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  Because we are checking each unique uri in sources.list only one time its 
possible that if the first check fails then the upgrade will fail to be 
calculated. That is better than upgrading and having components disabled though.

+ [Original Description]
  
  I took a bionic system and stepped through bionic->cosmic->disco via do-
  release-upgrade.
  
  Upon finishing I noticed that universe was "gone" and all packages from
  universe were removed from the system. Based on the files on my system,
  it looks like it happened during the bionic->cosmic upgrade. You'll see
  in the sources.list that cosmic-updates universe pocket is that but not
  cosmic universe.
