[Bug 2128659] Re: Upgrade from plucky to questing is blocked

[Alex Lowe]

@juliank - this is about the fact that you can't (without this
workaround) update it as a development release though.

Title:
  Upgrade from plucky to questing is blocked, even with -d

Status in meta-release:
  New
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  (This should probably be filed in meta-release, but it doesn't have a
  bug tracker.)

  Right now there's no way to do an in-place upgrade from plucky to
  questing without modifying the meta-release settings

  Questing is not yet marked as supported in
  https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release so the standard do-release-
  upgrade just returns nothing, but Resolute has been added to
  development (https://git.launchpad.net/meta-
  release/commit/?id=e1af75b3fb362b21922e990e9e85f2665047b116), so
  passing -d gets you "Upgrades to the development release are only
  available from the latest supported release."

  WORKAROUND:

  As a workaround, you can edit /etc/update-manager/meta-release to set
  the development line to simply be:

  URI_UNSTABLE_POSTFIX =

  and then use -d
