KrunoHi, all! I just started to use lubuntu and had some real trouble with setting up Trojitá with Gmail, and Just to see that it might not work after 2022-05-30 as „less secure” third-party apps will not be able to connect.12:12
loohi I am on a live dvd of 21.04 lubuntu. so far I am aware of the likely calamares limitation/bug  that is preventing me to complete upgrade/update my older lubuntu with parameters/data untouched. I precise I am no dev eventhough I know tools and play a bit with code. My questions now are : Knowing I can access my older lubuntu (it crashes when13:09
loobooting it from grub since the online upgrade from 18.xx or 20.xx to newer) externally; knowing the GRUB is fine too (heavy multiboot with several chainloading working just smoothly, except for the main linux/lubuntum returning the crash with mention kernel panic); Knowing I am using lubuntu for specific reasons (self educational purpose; global13:09
loomachine maintenance; I like it etc.). 1- Is Lubuntu 20.04.4 LTS iso packed with a newer version or the last version of calamares? If not which other lubuntu iso is (any channel is fine to me)?13:09
tomreynloo: installer / live iso's use the versions that were current for the target release when they were made.13:13
tomreynloo: i.e. the lubuntu 20.04.4 lts iso will be using the calamares package version of lubuntu 20.04 by the time (so including bug fixes) 20.04.4 released.13:14
tomreynloo: and the end-of-life 21.04 dvd you have will be using the (possibly higher, but without bug/security fixes) versions that 21.04 came with13:15
tomreynloo: consider running lubuntu or your other OSes in a VM rather than multi-booting - that enables you to switch between them without having to save your work / close your applications on / reboot your main OS13:16
tomreyn(not a good option on low resource hardware)13:16
tomreynthe highest package version of calamares will be with the newest lubuntu release iso (but older ones, i.e. 20.04.4 *may* have more bug/security fixes)13:18
loook thank you for the information. Now I was provided with workarounds and potential solutions (3 actually) to get the upgrade done with my data/setting saved. May I expose those to you guys here? So you just advise me which one(s) is/are the more accurate. I am planning now the vm solution but I need to first get my setup up and running for various13:20
looreasons I will not expose here.13:20
loo1- moving all important files to an external ext4 drive then erase ecerything except /home and run the installer again; 2- run a fedora iso instead 3- update calamares on the fly from the live session I am in (realistic?) then update?; Fix my ollder lubuntu another way (why not if possible)?13:32
looMy sources for those are : Lubuntu Tg channel (from one of the contributors of lubuntu); A linux ingeneer friend (unfortunately unreachable right now that is why i am here)13:38
kc2bezloo: I am not sure what bug in Calamares you are referring to. It should be noted this IRC channel is bridged to telegram so I am also not seeing the conversation you are referencing. 13:41
kc2bezYou should definitely backup your data before you begin anything. 13:42
kc2bezIt isn't possible to update Calamares in the live image because the version that is included would be the latest version available for that release. 13:43
looI was told there it was the problem and I cross checked in many dev forums it seems to be that indeed.13:44
kc2bezWhat problem exactly? 13:45
loois it possible to add a screen cap here?13:45

looit was the french lubuntu community on tg actually (communaute francophone lubuntu or something) sorry for not mentioning it13:47
kc2bezThere are only two supported releases of Lubuntu right now. 20.04 and 21.10  if you need a newer version of Calamares you need 21.10 Also keep in mind 22.04 is due to be released at the end of April. 13:49
loook let me send you the screen cap i got so far wait please.13:51

kc2bezYou should not get that error, that looks like corruption in the iso. You should download a supported release, verify your download, and use an appropriate method to burn the image to your USB. 14:04
