August, and still no LTS upgrade? [duplicate]

  • 772

I have Xubuntu 16.04 LTS installed:

# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS
Release:    16.04
Codename:   xenial

And I thought by now that the LTS upgrade to 18.04.01 would be possible, due to the announcement last month, however:

# do-release-upgrade
Checking for a new Ubuntu release
No new release found.

Is there a delay in releasing 18.04 LTS through the do-release-upgrade route?

xubuntu 16.04 18.04

  1. Try

    sudo do-release-upgrade -d

    the -d flag at the end of the command, it will upgrade to the current development version. Which might or might not be 18.04.
