Re: [ilugd] Fiesty missing from Ubuntu (Fiesty 7.04) Archives?
2009/3/19 gajendra khanna gajendrakha...@gmail.com Hi Thanks. I still need to figure out how to update though. Clues would be helpful. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/linux/upgrade-ubuntu-from-feisty-to-gutsy/ Gajendra Thanks Gajendra. The problem though is that since Feisty is no longer in the regular archives, all update-managers etc bomb - and if I use old-releases.ubuntu.com in my source list, I don't get the upgrade. Help! Anyone?

The problem though is that since Feisty is no longer in the regular archives, all update-managers etc bomb - and if I use old-releases.ubuntu.com in my source list, I don't get the upgrade. You need to add repositories of gutsy to your sources list which is available in the repos. That is the one you need to upgrade. Don't forget to comment rest of it. sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade That should do the job. The old release is just a mechanism to give you the old packages in an unsupported manner. Putting the stuff there reduces load on mirrors as well since they no longer keep them.

Hi All, Of late, apt has started throwing 404 errors when I try to install stuff. When I tried to investigate, it seemed that fiesty seems to be missing altogether from the archives. (http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/). Even the main archive doesn't seem to have fiesty. The older distributions (dapper, etc) are still around though. What is up?
