| bdmurray | ev: I've seen a fair number of people trying to install 11.04 on an existing 11.10 system. Do you know what would happen there? | 15:38 |
| ev | no idea, beyond there not being a rollback option in the release upgrader | 15:38 |
| ev | it's an interesting statistic to follow though | 15:39 |
| bdmurray | there is one reference to seeing "upgrade Ubuntu 11.10 to 11.04" | 15:40 |
| ev | I suspect that wouldn't feed into the rationale for that many people | 15:41 |
| ev | I mean, if they put an 11.04 CD in a 11.10 system, chances are they wanted to do that (or format) | 15:41 |
| ev | only obviously it should be called downgrade or reinstall | 15:41 |
| ev | the latter being what the code should currently be doing - though if they're seeing this, clearly it's busted | 15:42 |
| bdmurray | I might run a test and see what happens so we can at least tell people to stop doing it. | 15:44 |
| ev | :) | 15:58 |

| bdmurray | it certainly says upgrade | 16:33 |
| ev | oops | 16:33 |
| bdmurray | ev, cjwatson: How could I recover my system in bug 891711? | 19:32 |
