Re: [PLUG] Upgrading Kubuntu 18.04 -> 22.04


Yes, Arch breakage is much finer grained, so fewer things die more often. ;)

Option #3. 

Install Arch once so you never have to upgrade again.

I have a machine with Kubuntu 18.04, which I have been waiting for 22.04 (release next week) to update.

 

The website says there is no direct upgrade-in-place option 18.04 -> 22.04, only 20.04 -> 22.04.

 

So it seems I have two choices:

  1. Install from scratch
  2. Upgrade 18.04 -> 20.04, then upgrade 20.04 -> 22.04

 

My instinct tells me 1. might produce a better, more-stable result, but maybe that’s a dated way of looking at things.  If you’ve done an 18.04 -> 20.04 upgrade, did it produce a good result and are you planning to upgrade 20.04 -> 22.04?  Or would I be better served making the effort to do a fresh install?
