I have been running Xubuntu 20.04.5 LTS since it came out. I was going to upgrade to the next LTS, but I'm stymied by the requirement that I upgrade all existing apps first. I cannot.

After making changes suggested by helpful readers... When I try:

  1. apt-get update runs normally

  2. apt-get dist-upgrade seems to run normally, but...

  3. apt-get autoremove removes nsight-compute-2022.4.0 and nsight-systems-2022.4.2

  4. Whether or not I reinstall those nsight packages, do-release-upgrade says:

    Checking for a new Ubuntu release

    Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading.

So I cannot get the new release.... Please help

  • I have Ubuntu 22.04 LTS here and it is at .1 not .5 . There is not a new LTS release at this point that I know of. Try running: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoremove and see if that helps

  • @4dummies {} i.e. "code" is best for text you wish to keep as is (mark text, click on that icon above it).

  • Download and install 22.04 LTS as that is the newest version. Try the commands and then try installing the newer LTS

  • Look in Ubuntu Live Patch settings and see if you can get 22.04 from there.

Per https://github.com/cli/cli/blob/trunk/docs/install_linux.md - They had to change their key signing key and this appears to have broken your install -

Note We were recently forced to change our GPG signing key. If you've previously downloaded the githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg file, you should re-download it again per above instructions. If you are using a keyserver to download the key, the ID of the new key is 23F3D4EA75716059.

I posit that runnimg the following will import the new key (untested, im not by a PC)-

  curl -fsSL https://cli.github.com/packages/githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg > github-com-key.gpg
  apt-key add github-com-key.gpg

After that, re-attempt the upgrade.

I posit you will get some warnings still. If you want to remove these, look for duplicate lines in /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda-ubuntu2004-x86_64.list and remove the duplicate. (my guess is you can comment out lines 51-53 in /etc/apt/sources.list)

  • It worked as far as removing all those messages, but I'm still unable to install the new release.

  • @4dummies The question was and is what error do you get now? And by error we mean actual error messages or any other issue.

  • @changanauto There was nothing I would call an error message. Just the "Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading." and failure to complete when I try do-release-upgrade.

  • So do sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade (dist isn't used nawadays). If any error report back.
