Public bug reported: Upon upgrade from mantic to noble, my bare metal Edubuntu install removed the Universe repo from the installation and, therefore, did not upgrade any Edubuntu-specific packages. I suspect this was caused by the apt DEB-822 upgrade to the repo and not detecting the universe repo as required by the Edubuntu installation.
As Edubuntu looks identical to Ubuntu Desktop in terms of installation on the surface due to it also being a GNOME desktop, I suspect an assumption may have been derived from this. Additionally, simply trying `add-apt-repository universe` was ineffective, so that might need some work as well. Will attach logs if I can find them, but please do advise what logs you need. ** Affects: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Tags: rls-nn-incoming ** Description changed: Upon upgrade from mantic to noble, my bare metal Edubuntu install removed the Universe repo from the installation and, therefore, did not upgrade any Edubuntu-specific packages.
