Well, I think the LTS installations at that time were supported for 5 years. I am not sure that upgrading to 16 would still work. The usual is to do sudo update-manager and follow suggestions for how to upgrade distributions. There is also the more explicit sudo update-manager -d but it tends to offer updates to the newest release (possibly prerelease) rather than the latest stable. -- David Kastrup
