I want to upgrade from Kubuntu 11.10 to 12.04 (Precise Pangolin). (Perhaps that's unwise, I realize.) The problem I have is that no matter what I do, the automatic upgrade isn't recognized. Specifically, if I type
on the command line, or even
Code:
do-release-upgrade -d
I get the message "No new release found". I've inquired about this in various fora, but with no useful results.
So now I have a slightly different question: how is the upgrade notification supposed to work, i.e., what algorithm does it use? What program is looking for a new release? And just what is it looking for?
