[Bug 1970292] Re: ubuntu failed upgrade from 21.10 to 22.04

[James Cobban]

Thank you.  I do not know which exact mirror my system used because
"Software & Updates" merely identified it as in Canada.  When I google
"how do i tell which mirror is used" all I get back is how to get the
fastest mirror.  If I have a problem with a mirror how do I know WHICH
mirror I had a problem with?  Why is there no message as part of the
output of do-release-upgrade which identifies the mirror, especially
when reporting that there is a problem communicating with the mirror?

The error message: Connection timed out [IP: 91.189.91.38 80]
nslookup 91.189.91.38
38.91.189.91.in-addr.arpa	name = banjo.canonical.com.

I am puzzled because that is not a Canadian address, yet I specifically
requested a Canadian mirror.

If I can identify the mirror how do I determine to whom I should
communicate the fact that I had a problem?

As soon as I selected the "Main mirror" "Software & Updates" detected
that the system was out of date and refreshed, and apt required that I
update and upgrade my software.  It is entirely reasonable that some
mirrors are not up to the very latest levels right now as demand will be
low until the automatic upgrade is enable.  My main interest in
installing 22.04 on this one of my three computers is that it is a
recent laptop from System 76 and therefore has some unique hardware and
microcode requirements including very recent drivers which required that
I upgrade to 21.10. My other computers were all still on 20.04 and can
therefore wait until the dot release comes out.
