I have attempted to upgrade to 22.04 LTS using the update manager, but also from the commandline using sudo do-release-upgrade but nothing happens in either case. My system is set to look for 'any version' (not just LTS) and to check daily.

How do I fix this?

  • Thank you! OK. Will wait another week for the upgrade to become available. – Ari Börde Kröyer Apr 25 '22 at 06:18
  • It may become available in a few days... some fixes are currently in -proposed for jammy, when those have dropped (ie. moved to -updates or -security) the Ubuntu Release team will re-evaluate opening the upgrade for current 21.10 users.. I'd suggest waiting until it's offered if you can; as there are always reason for why the Ubuntu Release team do what they do. – guiverc Apr 25 '22 at 06:22

I am supposing you are in ubuntu 20.04.

  1. Goto Software and Updates. Click on Updates tab and Click on notify me a new ubuntu version and select For any new version.

  2. Upgrade to 21.04

  3. Open terminal

$ sudo apt update 
$ sudo apt upgrade
$ sudo apt dist-upgrade

$ sudo apt autoremove
$ sudo apt install update-manager-core
$ sudo do-release-upgrade -d

  • These are the exact steps I have followed. I repeated the whole sequence now and nothing happens before the last command (do-release-upgrade) but the release I am presented with is a development release of jammy-jellyfish. I have not set my system to look for development releases. – Ari Börde Kröyer Apr 25 '22 at 06:00
  • And he is also not on LTS only, so he is probably using 21.10 now – Irsu85 Apr 25 '22 at 06:00

    You can't upgrade to Ubuntu 21.04 - it's EOL & Ubuntu upgrade tools will not let you upgrade to an EOL erlease. https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2022/01/21/ubuntu-21-04-hirsute-hippo-end-of-life-reached-on-january-20-2022/ – guiverc Apr 25 '22 at 06:01
  • I am currently on 21.10. I have switched the update setting back and forth between any release and lts. Now, at least, I am offered the possibility to upgrade, but why does it present me with a 'development release' of 22.04? Is this actually the official release, but just an error in the message I get, or is it in fact what it says it is? – Ari Börde Kröyer Apr 25 '22 at 06:06

    Please see the answer I wrote in my suggested duplicate link; what you describe is what should happen for the reason I tried to describe in https://askubuntu.com/questions/1403610/22-04-is-suggested-on-ubuntus-website-but-not-in-the-repository/1403615#1403615 @AriBördeKröyer – guiverc Apr 25 '22 at 06:08
