user|43Good morning. The download of the ISO of Kubuntu 24.04 LTS does not work on the website. Anyone know what to do?  Thanks for the help07:44
IrcsomeBot<Marko> Hi, try this https://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/kubuntu/releases/24.04.1/release/07:49
IrcsomeBot<Marko> It seems that someone messed with the links :) (re @IrcsomeBot: <user|43> Good morning. The download of the ISO of Kubuntu 24.04 LTS does not work on the website. Anyone know what to do?  Thanks for the help)07:49
user|43Thanks a lot Marko. It works: the LTS 24.04.01 is downloading. Have a nice day08:18
IrcsomeBot<Marko> Welcome 😊 you too (re @IrcsomeBot: <user|43> Thanks a lot Marko. It works: the LTS 24.04.01 is downloading. Have a nice day)08:20
amichairHi, I'm trying to upgrade from 22.04 to 24.04.1 via do-release-upgrade, I've had a bunch of errors I think I've overcome, but now I'm stuck on the error: "An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade"10:24
amichairit recommends trying ppa-purge, which I've done for kubuntu ppa and backports, but the error remains10:24
amichairwhat do I need to do to be able to do the upgrade?10:25
user|11sudo do-release-upgrade fails with it trying to replace kubuntu-settings-desktop and going into loop there... :(  what to do?11:30
user|1122.04 to 24.04 then11:31
ElliriaHey there. I use Kubuntu 22.04 LTS. Today, there's a new icon in the system tray - a white circle with an orange up-arrow and it's offering me an upgrade to 24.04 and telling me that the current release will stop receiving updates and security fixes in 230 days.11:35
ElliriaI don't want to have that icon in the tray for the next two thirds of a year and I don't want to accidentally click on it. In order to hide it, I can configure the system tray, go into the Entries section, and change "KDE Daemon" from "Shown when relevant" to "Always hidden".11:35
ElliriaThat would be fine if it were only for this particular notification, but what other notifications would I then be missing?11:35

user|85Hi. This is prolly a very beginner question of me but is there a need/an ability to upgrade Kubuntu 24.04 to 24.04.1?12:43
amichairI think it's a cumulative update of all the normal updates you already have... so you're probably already there12:47
oerheksuser|85, that will happen automaticly when you run updates, you probably are already12:48
oerhekscat /etc/issue12:48
user|85Thanks. Let me check that.12:51
amichairor cat /etc/os-release12:51
user|85You are correct! Thanks loads. I'm more Linux experienced than my question may lead one to believe.  :D12:51
oerhekshave fun!12:52
user|85You folks are the best!12:52
amichairoerheks: any chance u can help with an upgrade to 24.04 that fails in the middle?12:52
oerhekswhat have you tried?12:54
oerhekssudo dpkg --configure -a  ## apt install -f ## are the 2 basic commands to get things fixed12:54
amichairit starts the process, then aborts with "An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. "12:54
amichairI think it actually does the rollbak ok, so the system isn't broken, but I just can't do the upgrade12:55
oerhekscheck if you have enough space?12:55
amichair19G12:55
amichairit recommends running ppa-purge, which I did, but same result12:56
amichairand apt.log has lots of conflicts at the bottom12:56
oerhekswhat recommends ppa-purge?12:58
oerheksppa's are automaticly disabled..12:58

amichairThis was likely caused by:12:59

oerheksso what non-ubuntu repos are installed?13:00
amichairI had kubuntu ppa and backports13:02
amichairand did ppa-purge, so presumably they're undone13:02
oerheksyes, maybe, did you reboot after that?13:03
amichairyep13:03
amichairother than that I have ppas for google-chrome, dropbox and signal, but I've upgraded another system with them so I don't think they're related13:07
amichairthe log includes things like:13:07
amichairBroken kubuntu-settings-desktop:amd64 Conflicts on desktop-base:amd64 < 11.0.3ubuntu1 -> 12.0.6+nmu1ubuntu1 @ii umU >13:07
oerheksnot sure where to look for, is this caused by backports..13:11
amichairisn't ppa-purge supposed to revert all the packages to the mainline?13:15
oerheksyes, it should, and you rebooted after that.13:15
amichairso what do I do now?13:16

oerheksnot sure where to go from here13:17
amichairthat's just one example, there's tens of those13:17

amichairI'm on 1.418.113:20
amichairit seems like the proper version for 22.0413:22
oerheksone could file a bugreport, or get a fresh iso and do a fresh install.13:22

amichairI don't think anything is broken in the current system, just not the versions the upgrader is expecting, or something like that13:25
amichairbut I don't know what it wants or how to get there13:25
amichairnot sure I can do a clean install, this system has been customized over years, runs various servers, etc..13:26

IrcsomeBot<TimoSalola> Just upgraded. No issues in the upgrade process itself, even gpu drivers seem to function perfectly. Lost some desktop widget configurations and the upgrade uninstalled a couple of applications which I use, but nothing major (re @CatchMe007: Has anyone upgraded from Kubuntu 22.04 LTS to Kubuntu 24.04.1?

BluesKajamichair, what I'm about to suggest isn't a solution but more of a work around for installing the next release but it has worked for me many times by changing your sources.list Open the terminal and run this command: sudo sed -i 's/saucy/trusty/g' /etc/apt/sources.list . You need to substitute the release names since saucy and trusty are just examples13:46

BluesKajusually 500mb is enough for the boot partition13:54
