[Bug 2067886] Re: Remove the XFS /boot upgrade check for noble

[Lorin Ricker]

I've tried to upgrade from 23.10 to 24.04/LTS twice, once last week
(1Jun2024) and again today (12June2024), expecting this problem to be
resolved/fixed and a "normal upgrade" would work.

Still encountering the same refusal box: "Cannot upgrade this system;
Due to a bug in grub, tihs system cannot be safely upgraded at this
time. See https://launchpad.net/bugs/2039172" and that bug 2039127 leads
to this one, 2067886.

Respectfully:  When will this "quirk" be fixed so that upgrades actually
work, and how can I find out when the fix is in?  Camp on this page?
TIA, Lorin

Title:
  Remove the XFS /boot upgrade check for noble

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Noble:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Upgrades for users with XFS /boot are wrongly blocked for noble as the workaround for mantic hasn't been removed.

  [Test plan]
  Run an upgrade on an affected system. The upgrade should not be blocked.

  [Where problems could occur]
  We are just removing a quirk, so there is very low risk. However, it is possible that other upgrade bugs exist for such platforms, and that they would be revealed by us removing this quirk.
