It depends. If they are not reproducible in later versions, closing them 
as "Fix Released" or "Invalid" is advisable.

But to the extent an issue is still present, I can't see that closing a 
bug, only because the version it was originally reported against is no 
longer supported, is the best measure. In such a case I would rather 
keep the bug open, add proper tags such as "jammy" and "mantic", and 
remove possible tags indicating EOL versions.
