Canonical begins pushing Resolute Raccoon
Users on Ubuntu 24.04 will begin to get nagged to update to 26.04.1. Here's how to proceed
Canonical has officially announced the release of Ubuntu 26.04.1 LTS, also known as "Resolute Raccoon," for existing Ubuntu users on 24.04. The company has opted to delay the promotion of the upgrade by a month, offering it to users of Ubuntu 24.04 LTS a couple of weeks after its release. This decision comes after a substantial delay, as Ubuntu 26.04.1 appeared over a month ago.
The company cited issues with the Rust language, which aims to replace C, as a contributing factor to the delay. The upgrade process for Ubuntu users can be initiated through either a command-line-based method or a graphical interface, both of which are easier than the traditional Debian method. Users are advised to install any outstanding updates, refresh Snap packages, clean the APT package manager's cache, and then reboot their systems to be offered the upgrade.
