distro-info-data (0.18ubuntu0.2) is up-to-date on trusty.

Shouldn't distro-info --devel return vivid not utopic as stated in the test case?

It was utopic when I wrote the post, now it is vivid. :)

Verified on precise:

... Setting up distro-info-data (0.8ubuntu0.6) ...
Setting up distro-info (0.8.2) ...
$ distro-info --devel
ubuntu-distro-info: Distribution data outdated.

# enable proposed and upgrade distro-info-data (0.8ubuntu0.7)
$ distro-info --devel
vivid
$ distro-info --devel --full
Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet"

The rest of the options, --lts, --supported, --unsupported, --stable, --all, look good as well.
