> Could you explain why you think -proposed should be disabled... That's only a suggested resolution that'd I'd be happy with.
The core issue I'm reporting is that I previously had artful-proposed enabled but pinned low priority such that I didn't have most packages in artful-proposed installed - only the ones I had cherry-picked to test. After I upgraded to Bionic, I ended up with everything in bionic- proposed installed. For me, that's a regression because I went from (stable + a few selected untested) to (everything* untested). The best resolution for me would be for ubuntu-release-upgrader to detect and update my pin to Bionic. But I don't expect it to be able to do that, so I think always disabling proposed would be sufficient. There's a old thread on ubuntu-release@ that discussed having -proposed enabled after release. The most relevant post I can find on this is https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu- release/2016-October/003950.html. In general, at least at the moment, it's considered a bad idea. Note that I had Artful _pinned low_ in proposed before upgrade. Since that pin stopped acting after upgrade to Bionic, I ended up in the situation this thread considers bad. I think disabling proposed would be better than this. I didn't know about bug 1199157 before, but I guess what I'm saying is that we should _also_ disable proposed on stable upgrades (therefore always disable it regardless of target). There's also talk of always pinning -proposed for users, which would also resolve this issue: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu- release/2016-October/003954.html ** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1784165 Title: Upgrader leaves proposed pocket enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1784165/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
