Jitsi-meet's directory structure on their server does not align with apt's new format, which seems to require, for example, "Components" to expand into the URL it's trying to access. So it wants to find http://download.jitsi.org/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64 from "Components: main." It wants to find "stable" in that tree, under "dists." The actual tree is:

http://download.jitsi.org/stable. There is no "/dists," and there is no "main/binary-amd64" directory.

Maybe it will accept the docker version, but docker itself cannot currently be upgraded because it, too, uses the old apt sources file format. I have my doubts because nothing was upgraded to match what Ubuntu did, except for apps under Ubuntu's control. The old format for apt files is deprecated, leaving several apps stuck in old versions which may not work correctly now.

Great fun. Perfect upgrade. Did Claude tell you to post this *#$@??

Jitsi-meet doesn't seem to have made new apt files. I'll try to make one that works, also for docker and elasticsearch. What a mess.

You can now upgrade Ubuntu from 24.04 LTS to 26.04.1 LTS

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon was released back in April 2026 when it provided you with many new features, such as GNOME 50 that provided improved performance and better fractional scaling, systemd 259, and APT 3 that provided enhanced appearance and improved package dependency resolution, thus fixing a decades-old interface bug while providing a more comfortable appearance.

Starting from today, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS users can finally upgrade to the newer Ubuntu long-term support release, which is Ubuntu 26.04.1 Resolute Raccoon, to take advantage of new features and enhancements. This opens the path for users who prefer upgrading from an older LTS release to a more recent LTS release instead of interim releases.

Users will start receiving update notifications through Update Manager, with the rollout happening progressively throughout coming days, so you may or may not see the update notification yet. However, we advise that you perform a system backup, including your files, and read the changelogs that you can see here before upgrading, in case something goes wrong.

Additionally, you can perform an upgrade from the command line with:

 $ sudo do-release-upgrade

Ubuntu 26.04.1 is here!

Ubuntu 26.04.1 is finally ready and is now available to the public, as September will find its way to us to introduce itself with a lot of excitement. The first point release brings a lot of improvements compared to the original version which was out back in April. And the most exciting thing is:

If you’re running 24.04.x, starting from today, you can finally upgrade to 26.04.1 by normal means!

As point releases are usually made for LTS releases with upgrades from the previous LTS release being enabled after every first point release, such as upgrading from 22.04.x to 24.04.1 and from 24.04.x to 26.04.1, this release is going to be a lot more exciting.

To upgrade your system by normal means from 24.04 LTS, you can either run the Update Manager or run the terminal and issue the sudo do-release-upgrade command. This way, you should be able to get a banner that tells you that the Ubuntu 26.04.1 version is now available. However, the download may be huge in the order of gigabytes, depending on how many applications are installed.

Check this link out to download Ubuntu 26.04.1!

The download may take several minutes, depending on your internet connection speed and how many applications are there on your system, while the installation may take as few as 15 minutes, depending on your applications and your computer performance. Never interrupt the upgrade process, or else you may have to either recover your system or backup your data and re-install the Ubuntu distribution using the 26.04.1 ISO image.

In the case of laptops, you’ll need to charge your laptop fully before upgrading, but it’s recommended to keep your laptop plugged in while upgrading to ensure that there are no interruptions. For PC towers, it’s recommended to keep it plugged in to the stable power source to avoid interruptions. Consult your electricity company for possible blackout schedules to plan your upgrade.

Installing .NET 10.0 on Ubuntu proot-distro with Termux on Android

.NET 10.0 is a new version of the modern .NET framework that brings several improvements across different areas of the software development kit, including runtime improvements (JIT inlining improvements, method devirtualization, and so on), new APIs in .NET libraries (new JSON deserialization options, post-quantum cryptography support, and so on), and many more improvements.

Normally, any .NET applications that are built for a specific platform can be run normally, such as Android applications made with MAUI. However, what if you’ve planned to run a CLI .NET application on Android? Or an application for computers? Termux can provide you with a solution.

Recent improvements to Termux involved changing how proot-distro downloads the distribution containers so that it utilizes Docker Hub to download the necessary assets and configure them to be usable. Follow the below steps to install .NET 10.0 with Ubuntu proot-distro.

1. Install Termux from F-Droid.
   • For Samsung devices, you might want to turn off the Auto Blocker feature so that you can install it. You can also use the Play Store version, but we haven’t tested it yet, and your mileage may vary.
2. Open Termux, and let it configure itself. After that, upgrade all packages using pkg upgrade.
   • If you’re prompted to choose whether to keep your own changes or to install the package-supplied version, just press ENTER on your phone’s keyboard.
3. Once all necessary upgrades are complete, you can now install the proot-distro program using pkg install proot-distro.
4. Afterwards, install the Ubuntu 26.04 Docker container with proot-distro install ubuntu:26.04.
   • It might take a while, depending on your internet connection.
5. Now, you can login to the container with proot-distro login ubuntu.
6. Before installing any packages in the Ubuntu proot environment, you’ll have to check to see if there are any package updates with apt update.
   • If there are any, run apt dist-upgrade to upgrade all packages.
7. Install .NET SDK 10.0 or .NET Runtime 10.0, depending on your use case.
   • If you want to build .NET applications, install the SDK using apt install dotnet-sdk-10.0.
   • If you want to just run .NET applications, install the runtime using apt install dotnet-runtime-10.0.
8. If you’ve installed the SDK, verify that the application actually builds.
   • Create a new directory, such as test (mkdir test), and change the current directory to it (cd test)
   • Create a new .NET console project with dotnet new console --use-program-main.
   • Verify that it actually builds using dotnet run.

However, as of now, you may be running into an issue where the building stage of any application may fail with error messages that are similar to this:

 GC heap initialization failed with error 0x8007000E  Failed to create CoreCLR, HRESULT: 0x8007000E 

In this case, you’ll have to add an environment variable that changes the GC heap hard limit value to an acceptable value so that you can build and run applications on Android devices. In order to do this temporarily, append the environment variable before the command, such as this:

 $ DOTNET_GCHeapHardLimit=1C0000000 dotnet build 

If this works, you can add a line that exports this environment variable to your ~/.profile like this:

 $ echo "DOTNET_GCHeapHardLimit=1C0000000" >> ~/.profile  $ . ~/.profile 

Once done, exit and re-enter your proot environment, and you should be able to build and run .NET applications.

Four Linux installs later, I have finally upgraded from Ubuntu 20.04LTS to Ubuntu 26.04LTS. Tried Ubuntu Unity 24.04, vanilla Debian13 and Debian13+KDE first. Each had some kind of showstopper, but I'm glad to have tried them. I'm a pretty conservative user; I just want a reliable daily driver.

The Resolute Raccoon

Canonical released Ubuntu 26.04 LTS “Resolute Raccoon,” the distribution’s eleventh long-term support version, on April 23, 2026. It follows a remarkably consistent course of modernization: Rust replaces key system tools, Wayland finally displaces X11, and post-quantum cryptography enters the default configuration. It is time to take stock.

Microsoft announces official availability of .NET 10.0 for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS!

Microsoft has announced that .NET 10.0 is now available globally for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS users! This version of .NET brings improved performance and new features, as well as other enhancements across different areas of the framework.

.NET is one of the officially supported development toolchains thanks to Microsoft and Canonical partnering together to ensure that .NET is available and easily installable in Ubuntu. This ensures that .NET works properly across multiple Ubuntu versions.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon has also seen many changes besides the availability of .NET 10.0, including the usage of Linux 7.0 as the kernel to add support for new hardware and to enhance your computer’s performance and reliability. Besides, .NET 10.0 introduced post-quantum cryptography.

To install .NET 10.0 SDK on your Ubuntu 26.04 LTS installation, follow these steps:

 $ sudo apt update  $ sudo apt install dotnet-sdk-10.0 

Similarly, to install the runtime on your installation, follow these steps:

 $ sudo apt update  $ sudo apt install dotnet-runtime-10.0 

However, to install .NET 10.0 SDK with Native AOT support, you’ll have to install the following packages:

 $ sudo apt update  $ sudo apt install dotnet-sdk-aot-10.0 clang 

To learn more about what’s new for .NET in Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, consult the article below.

So I’m testing out #Ubuntu2604LTS on an intel #thinkpad T14 gen 4 and the standby battery life is atrocious. Went to bed around 10pm, closed the lid and when I woke up in the morning it was completely dead. Am I missing something. I thought newer kernels handled sleep and power settings better? This is borderline unusable.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon uses Linux 7.0

This year has seen a significant events as Canonical has released a new long-term support release of Ubuntu, which is Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon! Yesterday, this version of Ubuntu was made available to the general public, and it includes a significant amount of improvements, as well as new features.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS is built on Linux 7.0, which is a significant milestone in the history of Ubuntu. This was done under Canonical’s promise of bringing the latest Linux version to Ubuntu versions at the time of the release.

You can consult the minimal changelogs of Linux 7.0 here.

Linux 7.0 in Ubuntu 26.04 LTS provides support for Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors (Panther Lake), which allows users who have this processor installed on their systems to experience the best of Ubuntu without any compatibility issues. This kernel introduces optimizations for the neural processing unit (NPU), which enables AI-enabled applications to provide maximum performance and improved efficiency.

Linux 7.0 in Ubuntu 26.04 LTS also provides support for IgH EtherCAT module, which enables support for a real-time networking protocol while enabling native OS support for microsecond-level timing precision for demanding workflows, such as robotics platforms.

For those who are investing in cloud-based solutions, such as Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, Ubuntu 26.04 LTS has been optimized for virtual machine images to enable maximum performance for the most demanding workflows in the cloud. This improves productivity while saving time in those tasks when run on the cloud.

To learn more about Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, consult the below announcement here.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon is now available!

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon is now available for users! This succeeds the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Noble Numbat, which was a previous long-term support version of Ubuntu that provides 15 years of total support, with 5 years of mainstream support for bug fixes and other improvements.

Since Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, more improvements have been made to the Ubuntu desktop experience to make your productivity more streamlined than before. With the introduction of GNOME 50, the desktop has seen many enhancements, such as better fractional scaling that minimizes blurring, monospace font size reduction to match the standard UI font, and a brand new system performance utility that lets you discover performance issues.

According to the official changelogs for LTS users, Ubuntu 26.04 has incorporated several new applications, including, but not limited to:

• Papers document viewer: The new document viewer replaces Evince that is actually a fork of Evince that uses GTK4 and partial usage of Rust for both memory safety and performance improvements.
• Loupe image viewer: The new image viewer replaces Eye of GNOME to use the new Glycin library written in Rust for faster and more secure image viewing.
• Ptyxis terminal emulator: The new terminal emulator replaces the older GNOME Terminal to ensure that more polished look matches the aesthetics of the Ubuntu desktop. Also, it supports directly running containers through podman, toolbox, and distrobox.
• Resources system monitor: The new system monitor app replaces System Monitor and Power Statistics to monitor the utilization of system resources more effortlessly.

Alongside the new applications, Ubuntu has also seen more improvements across different areas of the desktop, such as exclusivity to Wayland. In case you’re not a fan of Wayland, Ubuntu flavors still exist, such as Xubuntu.

The App Center has seen many improvements since the last LTS release, including installs in progress, third-part deb installation, and direct uninstall of snaps from the app manager. Additionally, Security Center has been added to check your computer’s security.

As for users who are using ARM64 systems, initial hardware enablement work is conducted with the Snapdragon X Elite platform that is included in the desktop ISO, along with a generic ARM64 ISOs targeting virtual machines, ACPI + EFI platforms, and Snapdragon-based Windows-on-ARM (WoA) devices.

If you are frustrated with the way the software updater notifies you that updates are available by opening windows, the software updater has been reworked to give you an actual notification if there are available updates. An icon in the system tray will remind you that there are available updates, even though the notification has been dismissed.

The following frameworks have been updated, including, but not limited to:

• OpenSSH 1:10.2p1
• ClamAV v1.4.3
• Django v5.2
• PHP v8.5
• Dovecot v2.4.2
• Postfix v3.10.0
• Samba v4.23
• Squid v7.2
• SSSD v2.12
• MySQL v8.4.8
• PostgreSQL v18
• Valkey v9.0.3

Finally, .NET 10.0 is included with the release of Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, which allows developers and users to build and run applications that are built with .NET 10.0 to allow access to the latest features and improvements that were done in this new LTS version of .NET. Canonical has also introduced a new way to install .NET using snaps instead of a regular APT, starting with .NET 10.0.

For developers, the following toolchains, apart from .NET, have been released:

• GCC v15.2, binutils v2.45, glibc v2.42
• Python v3.13.9 and v3.14
• LLVM v21
• Rust v1.91, v1.92, v1.93
• Golang v1.25
• Zig v0.14.1
• OpenJDK v8, v11, v17, v21, v25, v26 preview, v27 preview

To upgrade your system to 26.04 LTS, either open the terminal and run sudo do-release-upgrade, or open Software Updates and start the upgrade. Make sure that your packages are upgraded first.

To download this awesome release, check out the following links:

• Ubuntu 26.04 desktop
• Kubuntu 26.04 desktop
• Lubuntu 26.04 desktop
• Ubuntu Budgie 26.04 desktop
• Ubuntu Cinnamon 26.04 desktop
• Ubuntu Kylin (麒麟) 26.04 desktop
• Ubuntu MATE 26.04 desktop

Ghostty is now available on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon

Ghostty is a terminal emulator that uses your graphics card to achieve high performance, while focusing on being feature-rich and providing native user interface, and is written in Zig.

One day before Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon gets released, Ghostty has been added to the official Ubuntu repositories for this release under the universe pocket, with the note that ptyxis would still be the default terminal emulator and that the availability of Ghostty would be available as a preview.

The official announcement made by Canonical states that Ghostty can be installed to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Noble Numbat as follows:

 sudo apt install ghostty 

The above command will install Ghostty v1.3.0, and it contains new feature additions and improvements since Ghostty went v1.0. Currently, Zig v0.15 is used to build Ghostty, and the terminal emulator is available for Ubuntu systems on 64-bit processors, with amd64 and arm64 being the supported architectures.

You’ll need a graphics card that supports OpenGL v4.3 or later in order for Ghostty to work. If you have a graphics card that doesn’t meet this requirement, you’ll have to either find another terminal emulator or launch Ghostty with software rendering, with:

 LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=true ghostty 

The Ghostty library, libghostty, is currently not available as a system-wide library, but a future package update will include it.

Are you ready for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon?

Are you ready for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon?

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Noble Numbat brought improvements to the Ubuntu desktop while introducing new features. It was released as a long-term support version rather than the short-term support version to make it suitable for both regular desktop users and enterprise users.

Since Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, more improvements have been made to the Ubuntu desktop experience to make your productivity more streamlined than before. With the introduction of GNOME 50, the desktop has seen many enhancements, such as better fractional scaling that minimizes blurring, monospace font size reduction to match the standard UI font, and a brand new system performance utility that lets you discover performance issues.

According to the official changelogs for LTS users, Ubuntu 26.04 has incorporated several new applications, including, but not limited to:

Alongside the new applications, Ubuntu has also seen more improvements across different areas of the desktop, such as exclusivity to Wayland. In case you’re not a fan of Wayland, Ubuntu flavors still exist, such as Xubuntu.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS Resolute Raccoon will be released after tomorrow. To learn more about the changes, consult the changelogs below.
