Bug description:
  1. Install Ubuntu 12.04.
  2. Software Sources > "Updates" > "Notify me of a new Ubuntu version" > "For any new version".
  3. update-manager -d
  4. "Upgrade"

  What happens: A silly prompt appears, "Replace the customized
  configuration file '/etc/update-manager/release-upgrades'?"

  When you uncheck the LTS box on the updates tab, the line in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades looks like:
  prompt=normal
  on upgrade the following is expected:
  Prompt=normal

  Marking this high as an unnecessary prompt on upgrade seems RC to me.
