That's it? A conclusion with no reasons, no exploration of options? How about a check in the upgrade routine that makes a list of currently installed packages with no reverse dependencies, that do not appear in the new release repos, and warn the user if they consent to the upgrade those packages will either be left behind or go away?
That sounds feasible, I suspect many other options would as well. I was hoping for a little more thought here, or at least a reason. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1886970 Title: should be warned if major installed package not in upgrade.
