I am having the same problem. Stuck at "Searching for obsolete software", nearly an hour and now at 97%. Upgrading 22.04 to 24.04 from command line.
CPU at 100% noble process. I have Ryzen 5950X + pcie 4 nvme samsung, so it is pretty fast but still taking almost an hour. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874272 Title: Stage "searching for obsolete software" takes a very long time (30 minutes) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1874272/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
