As I said before, it doesn't for me.  So you need to debug why
do-release-upgrade is not working correctly in your environment.

 DEBUG_UPDATE_MANAGER=1 do-release-upgrade

Thanks for your reply, this is exactly what I want. However, do-release-upgrade 
on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS reports "No new release found.", if there's a switch I can 
add or a configuration change I can make which will cause do-release-upgrade to 
"find" Ubuntu 18.04 LTS just tell me what to change.  Or, if there's a 
different approach I can use, I'm certainly willing to do so, just tell me what 
it is.

The upgrader supports two upgrade paths:
- upgrade to the next release which is still supported
- upgrade to the next LTS release.

We never support skipping an LTS release when upgrading.

And 16.10, 17.04, and 17.10 have reached end of life.

So the only upgrade path from 16.04LTS is to 18.04LTS, which appears to be
what you want.

Upgrade to a specific Ubuntu version?

2020-05-13 Thread Leroy Tennison 
You've already responded to my questions about do-release-upgrade.  I have an 
Ubuntu 16.04 system in production which has a lot of specific configuration and 
I need to upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04 to address a weakness in one of the packages 
due to it's age (not being specific because it's a security weakness).  Is 
there a way to specify a specific version to upgrade to via any upgrade 
process?  Thanks for your help.
