# do-release-upgrade
Check for a new version of Ubuntu
There is no new version.

Hi, Stefan. First of all, Thanks you, very much for your intention to
help me. Once said this; i'm beyond 60 years old, i'm not a boy. I begun
with GNU/Linux in 1999. When i ask a question on a mailing list, before
i did by myself a research of WEEKS of search and look for information.

The only way to update to Noble today is by typing -d, which i have been
doing consecutively twice a year for the last 5 years, and it has always
worked fine.

I'm asking correctly the exact thing i need to know. I'm not sure if
since Jammy Jellyfish is possible do a release upgrade without the '-d'
because i don´t have right now access to a 22.04 system. I have Mantic
Minotaur (23.10) and i am firmly convinced that the command i must to
use to do the upgrade to Noble Numbat (24.04) is 'do-release-upgrade -d'.

Thanks again. :)
