    How to Remove "Raring Ringtail" From the Source List?

    I get this error message when I try to upgrade to 19.04

    E: The repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu raring Release' no longer has a Release file.
    N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.

    I've already edit the software sources list and removed all the entries that have "raring ringtail".


    Is it hidden in a secret directory? How can I find it and remove it from the system?

    Check the 3rd party repository directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
    I've seen newer installs add that particular entry there.
    It'll probably list the file as something like raring-partner.list.

    Hello, deadflowr,


    I have all these listed there. Should I delete them all?

    Sure. Go ahead and remove them.
    Then check launchpad to see if those have versions for the new release you're on.

    This one does:
    https://launchpad.net/~canonical-chr...e/ubuntu/stage

    This one does not:
    https://launchpad.net/~chromium-dail.../ubuntu/stable

    This one does:
    https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozill...ive/ubuntu/ppa

    And this one doesn't have a disco archive yet, so hold off:
    https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozill...ive/ubuntu/ppa
    But expect the last one to get a disco archive soon.

    All disabled and still can't upgrade to 19.04

    "Checking for a new Ubuntu release
    New release '19.04' available.
    Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it.
    Satellite-A305:~$ do-release-upgrade
    Checking for a new Ubuntu release
    Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading"
    ...

    Satellite-A305:~$ sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade

    ... And again

    Satellite-A305:~$ do-release-upgrade
    Checking for a new Ubuntu release
    Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading.

    Nothing happens.

    What release is it to begin with?
    And what option is it set to upgrade for?
    (Setting options for upgrades are either any new release or long term supported releases or none)
