At every login I got a message from `/etc/update-motd.d/95-hwe-eol`
reading:
Your current Hardware Enablement Stack (HWE) is going out of support
on 2025-04-30. After this date security updates for critical parts (kernel
and graphics stack) of your system will no longer be available.
For more information, please see:
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/2004_HWE_EOL
There is a graphics stack installed on this system. An upgrade to a
configuration supported for the full lifetime of the LTS will become
available on 2022-07-21 and can be installed by running 'update-manager'
in the Dash.
But calling `hwe-support-status --show-all-unsupported`
prints nothing but extits with nonzero returns code.
This causes 95-hwe-eol to print the above message.
By debugging /usr/bin/hwe-support-status I found that it is mocking about
xserver-xorg-core-lts-vivid
xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-vivid
linux-generic-lts-vivid
xserver-xorg-lts-vivid
libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts-vivid
xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-vivid
These were not removed while upgrading from ubuntu 16.04 to ubuntu 20.04
They were obsolete since xserver-xorg-core 2:1.20.8-2ubuntu2.6 is already
installed
and could be removed without causing nor problems.
Doing so made the login message message go away.
