[Bug 2090892] Re: Upgrade issue

[Chris Guiver]

Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu.

Ubuntu 23.10 (mantic) reached end-of-life on July 11, 2024.
Ubuntu 23.04 (lunar) reached end-of-life on January 25, 2024.

See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested
in discussing it anymore. But if you are then please install a supported
latest Ubuntu version and re-test. If you then find the bug is still
present in the newer Ubuntu version, please add a comment here telling
us which new version it is in.

Ubuntu 23.04 is EOL thus the errors you experienced

Ubuntu 23.04's supported upgrade path was to 23.10
(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManticUpgrades); however Ubuntu 23.10
(mantic) is now also EOL so that upgrade path is gone.

Your supported upgrade paths are gone, you can refer to
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades which does mention
"Unsupported upgrades" which are a more manual process, which is the
upgrade path now for Ubuntu 23.04 outside of re-install.

In future; upgrade prior to EOL, or in the six months after EOL, as
after that period you risk being in the unsupported upgrade path you're
now in (unless the next release is a LTS, then you have longer).

Title:
  Upgrade issue

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After updating your package information, the essential package 'ubuntu-minimal' could not be located. This may be because you have no official mirrors listed in your software sources, or because of excessive load on the mirror you are using. See /etc/apt/sources.list for the current list of configured software sources.
  In the case of an overloaded mirror, you may want to try the upgrade again later.
