The level of interaction seemingly required by do-release-upgrade is a pain for experienced users too.
I've just upgraded about a dozen machines to precise. Using do-release- upgrade is apparently the supported way to do this, but requires a frustratingly high level of interaction, asking several questions which seem to have perfectly sane default answers, and these questions aren't all asked together, meaning each upgrade stalls a number of times waiting for user input. Setting the debconf threshold to "critical" didn't make much difference. For me, a --assume-yes option to do-release-upgrade (the equivalent of «apt-get dist-upgrade --assume-yes») would be ideal. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1007543 Title: Release upgrading requiring user input baffles inexperienced users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager-core/+bug/1007543/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
