Also you can go with the Snap package, which will be auto upgrade
whenever the new version is out. When that come out the new version will
report on startup if you would like to import the previous workspace
which is usually safe. If I'll have some time, I'd experiment with Snaps
auto directory update feature, that would theorethicly allow seamless
version upgrades, what would mean you open the IDE 12.2 one day and the
other day it would open with the same settings but 12.3... (Probably
that would happen first as 13.0 though)

Hi,
I installed netbeans 12.1 in linux (don't remember if I used the
zip file or the shell installer).
Anyway I see 12.2 is available but running "Check for updates" in
my Netbeans says that there are no updates available.
Is that supposed to work or do we need to re-install it every time
a new release comes in?
Thanks,
Marco
