Public bug reported:
The same problem as every other year:
With every new LTS release unison becomes incompatible with the new and
the last Ubuntu release. Even if not incompatible in a technical way,
unison compares the version string and denies to communicate with a
different version.
So it is (without dirty workarounds such as running an old unison in a
docker image) not possible to synchronize files between a 20.04 and a
22.04 machine.
Would be nice, to either have the old version available in 22.04, or the new
version available in 20.04.
regards
