There will be no updates. I am not sure if the development branch
has opened up yet for 12.04 To upgrade there are no iso's at this stage. to upgrade to the development branch you need to do the following 1) install update-manager-core 2) sudo do-release-upgrade -d the 2nd step begins the upgrade process to the development branch.

How can I test Unity in 12.04 (Development branch) ? Is it possible to test it starting from a tty session in 12.04 (sudo chroot /var/chroot/precise) and then starting the gui (lightdm) ? Thank you very much. Have a nice day.

Of course, you could always change the entries in /etc/apt/sources.list manually to point to precise.Do I need to switch to 12.04 (precise) ?Not at all. At this point in the development cycle, I would even suggest that it would be a bad idea to upgrade you main work environment. I suggest would suggest that you use a virtual machine or go back over some of the options in the UsingDevelopmentReleases/OtherWays wiki page. Many Ubuntu developers prefer to build their packages with pbuilder (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto) and then test them in a virtual machine. -- Andrew Starr-Bochicchio Ubuntu Developer <https://launchpad.net/~andrewsomething> Debian Maintainer <http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=a.starr.b%40gmail.com> PGP/GPG Key ID: D53FDCB1 |
