after my first post was jailed because of "profane language", let's do it again without it.
The Upgrade to 24.0.1 has serious issues.
Half of the system got deinstalled:
- nivida driver
-kde
-cups
-hplib
-grub
for a "nomal" user this would be the end of the story and he would not be able to recover his system to a working state again.
since i am with linux since 1998 , i got this.
many 3rd party software developers dont have any updated versions yet, like hplip, which is not able to work without gconf2 at the moment.
so if you update your system, you are not able to print anymore if you got HP printers and like to FAX or Scan.
hplip-check:
warning: ubuntu-24.04 version is not supported. Using ubuntu-23.04 versions dependencies to verify and install...
same is for many other vendors (like banela etcher and so on) and i simply can't get it, that this update is released without testing this.
this is ridiculous.
then, why did u change the permission of apparmor for the file system ? ( kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns=0)
and last but not least : SNAP.
<snip>, i am so annoyed by that, i can't tell.
so it's the point reached to leave ubuntu, because for desktop it was easy fun and nice new packages, a fire and forget installation.
well, that ended today.
Too much work to be done, if you have to recover that failed upgrade.
Then i can go back to gentoo for server and debian for desktop.
this windows style upgrade and bring "new features" also in windows style, is not why i am working with a linux system.
