Ever tried to upgrade ubuntu from a LTS version to a non LTS version and gotten the message “No new release found” even though you know there is? SOOOOOO ANNOYING!
Since I always forget this and have to go searching for it, I’m going to post it here. And if it saves someone else out there from wasting time looking for the same thing all the better.
1. Install update-manager-core if it is not already installed:
sudo apt-get install update-manager-core
2. Edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and set:
Prompt=normal
3. Launch the upgrade tool:
sudo do-release-upgrade
4. Follow the on-screen instructions.
