| valorie | !eol points to a rather useless page -- that seems a recent change | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| ubottu | valorie: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:02 |
| valorie | !eol | 00:02 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 00:02 |
| k1l | ? | 00:03 |
| valorie | last guide given: | 00:03 |
| valorie | Instructions for specific upgrades | 00:03 |
| valorie | Oneiric 11.10 to Precise 12.04 | 00:03 |
| valorie | very outdated page | 00:03 |
| k1l | yeah, the method is still the same. | 00:03 |
| k1l | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades#Upgrading | 00:03 |
| valorie | certainly but either the page should be updated, given the knowledge base of the people asking | 00:05 |
| valorie | or we should just point to the release sched or so | 00:05 |
| k1l | imho the basic section on that page is just fine. | 00:05 |
| valorie | ok | 00:06 |
| k1l | "To begin the upgrade, make sure you have a sources.list like the following, with CODENAME being your release, e.g. quantal. " | 00:06 |
| k1l | its generic. | 00:06 |
| k1l | one could remove the form ubutnu 4.04 to 4.10 links at the bottom since they are useless. | 00:07 |
| valorie | the Releases page has some confusing data too: 14.04.03 is eol in Aug 2016? | 00:07 |
| k1l | the hardware enablement stack, yes. | 00:07 |
| valorie | while .01 is 2029 | 00:07 |
| valorie | I mean 2019 | 00:07 |
| k1l | 14.04.3 was installed with a kernel (the 15.04 backports kernel) that is not LTS and will be dropped then. | 00:08 |
| k1l | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Kernel.2BAC8-Support.A14.04.x_Ubuntu_Kernel_Support this is meant | 00:08 |
| valorie | got it | 00:09 |
| valorie | that date should maybe be starred in the table and explained | 00:09 |
| k1l | expect a lot of people asking because they will get a "please update" message around that time :/ | 00:09 |
| valorie | yeah | 00:14 |
| valorie | and I hope they will | 00:14 |
| valorie | the future is good | 00:14 |
| k1l | but first prepare for people asking ehy the upgrade 14.04 to 16.04 doesnt work :) | 00:15 |
| k1l | (the LTS upgrade is officially opened when 16.04.1 is released) | 00:16 |
| valorie | yup, that always confuses people | 00:16 |

| Pici | ugh, BluesKaj | 14:02 |

| ikonia | thats a film isn't it | 15:12 |
| ikonia | "I don't want them to hear us" | 15:12 |
| ikonia | "remove their ears then" | 15:12 |
| genii | Hm, !final isn't quite accurate | 17:51 |
| dax | !final | 17:52 |
| ubottu | If you install a development version of Ubuntu Xenial and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 16.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. | 17:52 |
| Pici | why not/ | 17:52 |
| genii | LTS-LTS available when point release comes | 17:52 |
| dax | umm, what does LTS->LTS have to do with beta->final | 17:52 |
| genii | so 16.04.1, which is not when it comes out in April, but later on, like June-July normally | 17:52 |
| genii | Oh, nvm | 17:52 |
| genii | Need more caffeine today :( | 17:53 |
| dax | my coworker just got 240mg of caffeine in jamba juice boosts, try thatr | 17:53 |
| dax | i think he's vibrating right now | 17:53 |
| genii | heh | 17:53 |
| k1l_ | mosene: hi | 21:45 |
