** Description changed:

- hwe-support-status generates an empty apt-get command as can be seen in
- its output appended below. As the command doesn't really make sense I
- assume that this is not the expected behaviour.
+ [Impact]
+  * Users who have leftover components of a HWE stack get a misleading message 
in /etc/motd
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+  * install 12.04 (any version) server
+  * install xserver-xorg-video-sis-lts-saucy (or any random -lts-saucy 
non-meta package)
+  * run hwe-support-status
+  * verify that you get a message that contains:
+ """Install a newer HWE version by running:
+ sudo apt-get install
+ """
+  * install the updated version
+  * verify that you get a message with "The following packages are no longer 
supported:" and no longer a empty apt-get install message.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+  * Little, it could report too much to remove but thats very unlikely.
