Public bug reported: When rewriting sources.list entries the release-upgrader doesn't check to see if the distribution to which the system is being upgraded is supported by the archive / PPA. This results in the following error message:
A problem occurred during the update. This is usually some sort of network problem, please check your network connection and retry. E:The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu cosmic Release' does not have a Release file. If the release-upgrader were to actually check if the release were supported then that specific sources entry could be disabled and the upgrade may be able to proceed. ** Affects: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Brian Murray (brian-murray) Status: In Progress ** Tags: bionic cosmic rls-dd-incoming ** Tags added: bionic cosmic rls-dd-incoming ** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Brian Murray (brian-murray) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1807043 Title: when rewriting sources.list ubuntu-release-upgrader doesn't check to see if new release is available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1807043/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
