Canonical Halts Upgrades to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Due to ‘Critical Bug’

Last week, the first point release of Ubuntu 24.04 LTS arrived and upgrades from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS enabled. Upgrade prompts began to show on desktops and Canonical encouraged folks to upgrade. Only, those upgrades didn’t go work out well for everyone. So much so that Canonical has paused upgrades to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Yesterday, the ‘noble’ release was edited out of the meta-release-lts file (which is what Ubuntu systems check to ‘see’ new version) thereby preventing anyone from being able to upgrade to 24.04.1 LTS through officially-supported methods. Canonical says it’s halted upgrades “due to a critical bug
