The best is not to upgrade Lubuntu, but first remove completely the

Israel, & All:
Just to illustrate differing in approaches, what I do (that works fine
for me) is the opposite.
I usually upgrade, and I never have /home in a separate partition
(though I used to have /home in a separate partition years ago).
I like to test the installer for every new release, as (for me) I think
that is what new users will use, and I like to make sure it will work as
expected, and go smoothly. I have been pleasantly surprised in the past
couple of releases to find everything going exactly as I had hoped with
no bugs. It also goes remarkably quick.
I'm glad you do it the other way, though as we need people to test
upgrading through that method!
I keep /home in a separate partition for recovery purposes, as I
sometimes do some wild things to my testing computer :) and I like to
not lose everything if I bork my system badly enough.
