After a do-release-upgrade, I'm now running ubuntu 12.04 LTS, as indicated below

> lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Release:        12.04
Codename:       precise

However, I find that all the entries in my /etc/apt/sources.list were commented out except for one.

QUESTION: Is it safe for me to edit these, replacing the old 'lucid' with 'precise' in what is shown below?

Install Y PPA Manager mate, it's really intuitive: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/y-ppa-manager-0092-released-with-new.html

Check if the Sources actually support precise I checked this source [ http://debian.yorku.ca/ubuntu/dists/ ] and there is a precise folder so renaming the sources to precise should work fine. Although on sources that were marked lucid-security you might want to change them to precise-security.
