Ubuntu 24.04 upgrade
GUI systems
- Upgrading gnome can be troublesome shit from command line. Do this:
- exit i3, boot into Gnome
- hit Alt, type Software Updater, go through options to upgrade
- Or to try from the command line anyway:
sudo apt install update-manager sudo update-manager &
Non-GUI systems
mh-update-ubuntu # (ensure all repos are working) # reboot # connect via direct proxmox shell (not ssh) sudo do-release-upgrade # mail server: none
NOTES
General
- FFS You must use 24.04.1, any older version is NOT OFFICIALLY SUPPORTED and there will not be a direct path from 22.04.x. Idiots were supposed to have it ready 2024/08/15 but bugs pushed that to 2024/08/29.
- Ensure all repos are available
Fucking google key needs bump:
curl https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg add -
I had to hunt and kill the old albert key too, what a fucking pita..
- Officially upgrade via Canonical tooling
It supports 22.04.1 > 24.04.1.
OLD Notes from 22.04, for review...
- these were replaced (i put old ones in ~/backup/) and need review:
/etc/systemd/networkd.conf /etc/sudoers /etc/ssh/sshd_config /etc/i3/config /etc/i3/config.keycodes
After fixing networkd.conf, you should restart the service, but that isn't enough, you need to disconnect from wired and reconnect to wired before changes are applied.
/etc/i3/config.keycodes has some newer foo that I need to vet against my i3 config. Esp this:
# Start XDG autostart .desktop files using dex. See also # https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/XDG_Autostart exec --no-startup-id dex --autostart --environment i3

- gitlab key is causing failure, upgrade it
curl -JLO "https://packages.gitlab.com/runner/gitlab-runner/gpgkey/runner-gitlab-runner-49F16C5CC3A0F81F.pub.gpg" gpg --import runner-gitlab-runner-49F16C5CC3A0F81F.pub.gpg
not enough - kill fucking apt repo, readd it
curl -L "https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/runner/gitlab-runner/script.deb.sh" | sudo bash
then the usual
mh-update-ubuntu
