Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) End of Life reached on April 30, 2015

[news 28]

This is a follow-up to the End of Life warning sent last month to

confirm that as of today (April 30, 2015), Ubuntu 10.04 is no longer

supported. No more package updates will be accepted to 10.04, and

it will be archived to old-releases.ubuntu.com in the coming weeks.

 

The original End of Life warning follows, with upgrade instructions:

 

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

found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PreciseUpgrades and

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TrustyUpgrades. Ubuntu 12.04 and

14.04 continue to be actively supported with security updates and

select high-impact bug fixes. All announcements of official security

updates for Ubuntu releases are sent to the ubuntu-security-announce
