I’ve been using Kubuntu Gutsy for a while and have been keeping up with updates, but now with the final release of Gutsy out I decided to use Adept to dist-upgrade to the final release.
After getting an update of the latest packages, Adept gives you the option to perform the dist-upgrade.
The process is very easy for user to follow, although I did have a message informing me that support from Canonical had run out for some libraries (libgtk1.2).
I was presented with a list of packages that would be installed/updated to complete the upgrade, and I went out to have a coffee (it estimated over an hour for downloading).
The process continued until the Installing the upgrades step, at which point it hung for well over half an hour and I grew impatient and ended it.
Fortunately I was able to use the Full Upgrade option in Adept to install the new updates.
I don’t really have time to install a pre-release version and try again, so I wonder if anyone else has come across this?
