Followup from the stretch goal in #4104, this ticket is to ensure that on Trusty on 0.12.0~rc2 an OSSEC alert is indeed sent containing a pointer to the Xenial upgrade guide at https://securedrop.org/xenial-upgrade.

See the test plan in #3546 for how to test this - note that the notification is sent on a weekly basis.

If the alert is not being sent for some reason, then the implementer of this ticket should investigate why and resolve. See #4116 for various ideas on how to do this.

Following steps in #3546, I verified in Trusty staging VMs (with OSSEC enabled) that an OSSEC alert will be sent with the expected message:

gpg: encrypted with 4096-bit RSA key, ID 0xEECE0DDC6DCB11EF, created 2015-03-16
      "Freedom of the Press Foundation <[email protected]>"

/etc/cron.weekly/update-notifier-common:
New release '16.04.5 LTS' available.
Visit https://securedrop.org/xenial-upgrade for more information

This is working as expected, so no further action is needed. Closing!
