Bugs that are filed against "End of Life" releases get ignored by ubuntu bug squad, and sometimes set to Invalid or Incomplete, and sometimes "Won't Fix" by BugControl, which closes those bugs. Since Ubuntu releases that are EOL are no longer valid, I believe that here on Ask Ubuntu, questions about end-of-lifed releases (whether about filing bugs against EOL releases or asking for support with EOL releases per our EOL handling policies) should be either closed, or have a response of "The version of ubuntu you are asking about is past end of life, and isn't supported. You should upgrade." and then be closed.
