[Bug 1503979] Re: ubuntu-support-status throws exeption No date tag found (regression)

 

Note that on a trusty host I have where ubuntu-support-status doesn't
throw a traceback, the following files exist:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  64441 Oct 22 23:53 /var/lib/apt/lists/ubuntu-mirror.nxnw.org_ubuntu_dists_trusty-security_InRelease
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  63459 Oct  1 23:28 /var/lib/apt/lists/ubuntu-mirror.nxnw.org_ubuntu_dists_trusty-security_Release

The latter being outdated with respect to the former. apt should
probably be cleaning these out.
