I've understood that when I run the Software Updater GUI program, or when I execute do-release-upgrade
on the command line, it should offer to upgrade to the latest LTS release if (1) I've got the release update behaviour set to lts
, and (2) if the first point release of a newer LTS release is available.
I have a couple of machines running the Xubuntu LTS release 18.04. The contents of file etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
on all these machines is
[DEFAULT]
Prompt=lts
That satisfies condition (1). Also, it seems that Xubuntu 20.04.1 is already released, satisfying condition (2). However, neither do-release-upgrade
nor the Software Updater offers to upgrade to that release. Why?
Edited to add: It seems this question is a duplicate of "Why isn't an upgrade to 20.04 from 18.04 available yet?".
