I'm currently using the development version 22.04. If the LTS version of 22.04 is released at the end of April, can I switch to this LTS version instead of the development version?

  • Ubuntu 22.04 doesn't yet exist; it's currently the development release Ubuntu jammy and remains that until it reaches RC state which isn't expected until after 14 April 2022, and isn't on-topic here until release on 21 April 2022. https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/jammy-jellyfish-release-schedule/23906 Please refer https://askubuntu.com/help/on-topic. For support issues with Ubuntu jammy you'll need to use a #ubuntu-next or #ubuntu+1 site (IRC, UF etc) – guiverc Apr 04 '22 at 02:41
  • If you wish to report bugs, firstly thank you for helping test the release, but please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs and use a #ubuntu+1 site such as IRC, https://ubuntuforums.org/ etc. This site isn't tracked for ubuntu+1 or #ubuntu-next issues Note: beta-freeze was reached on 28-March, and beta actually released (31-March-2022) – guiverc Apr 04 '22 at 02:41

    If you perform normal upgrades (ie. apt full-upgrade) regularly your system will become a full system when RC is reached.. ie. the development & codename will be replaced by 22.04, and you'll have a fully functional 22.04 system (though disk comparisons may show differences due to dropped files etc that may exist on alpha or beta installs.. these file differences will not impact functionality though; they're just evidence of alpha/beta changes) – guiverc Apr 04 '22 at 02:42
  • 22.04 is currently slated to be the next LTS. If you continue to run sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade throughout development and then also once it's released you will get 22.04 LTS. – Thomas Ward Apr 04 '22 at 03:32
