Looks like upgrade to 25.04 have been re-enabled. Got the notification about 10 minutes ago.

If you are running 25.04, then you are okay to do normal package updating.

sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade

You can always simulate the full-upgrade if you have any doubts.

Upgrading packages isn't the same thing as upgrading the version of Kubuntu. The issue currently is upgrading to 25.04 from the earlier version.

Ok....

To be clear, I am running 25.04. Is it ok to run an update on this?

UpDATE or uGRADE?

The release upgrade is still disabled. So you do want to install normal updates, as these are probably needed for the upgrade when they have fixed everything and deemed it ready.

I keep seeing the update icon in my tray. Is it working now, or are they still working on it?

[steve7233]

I did a fresh install about 4 days after 25.04 released so I guess it's just upgrading that is borked but they should fix that soon. I have done a couple of upgrades before they noticed the problem and turned it off I wounder if the desktop got borked. Should I reinstall from the USB and tell it not to upgrade the packages?

Is a straight install; download ISO and burn/install from that; working?

Yes. The issues are purely upgrade related.

[oshunluvr]

Yes, I did that yesterday. Last week the 25.04 link redirected you to a 24.04 install. I got 25.04 ok this last time.

How long will Kubuntu be out of the game? When will I be able to upgrade to Kubuntu 25.04 from the command line?

Until they fix things?

Looks like they re-directed the ISO d/l link back to 24.04 also

If it was, it looks to be back to normal now.
