Ubuntu 23.10 (Mantic Minotaur) reached End of Life on July 11, 2024

By guiverc | Published: 2024-07-17

This is a follow-up to the End of Life warning sent earlier to confirm that as of July 11, 2024, Ubuntu 23.10 is no longer supported. No more package updates will be accepted to 23.10, and it will be archived to old-releases.ubuntu.com in the coming weeks.

Additionally, Ubuntu Security Notices will no longer include information or updated packages for Ubuntu 23.10.

The supported upgrade path from Ubuntu 23.10 is to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
Instructions and caveats for the upgrade may be found at:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NobleUpgrades

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS continues to be actively supported with security updates and select high-impact bug fixes. Announcements of security updates for Ubuntu releases are sent to the ubuntu-security-announce mailing list, information about which may be found at:

https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-security-announce

Since its launch in October 2004, Ubuntu has become one of the most highly regarded Linux distributions with millions of users in homes, schools, businesses and governments around the world. Ubuntu is Open Source software, costs nothing to download, and users are free to customise or alter their software in order to meet their needs.
