Ubuntu announced its 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) release almost 5 years ago,

on April 29, 2010. As with the earlier LTS releases, Ubuntu committed

to ongoing security and critical fixes for a period of 5 years. The

support period is now nearing its end and Ubuntu 10.04 will reach end

of life on Thursday, April 30th. At that time, Ubuntu Security Notices

will no longer include information or updated packages for Ubuntu 10.04.

 

The supported upgrade path from Ubuntu 10.04 is via Ubuntu 12.04.

Users are encouraged to evaluate and upgrade to our latest 14.04 LTS

release via 12.04. Instructions and caveats for the upgrades may be
