Ubuntu 24.04 upgrades
by Wawa from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6MMQE)
Hello there,
I have installed Kubuntu 24.04 last week (brand new installation, not an upgrade).
The main change I do is that I have removed Firefox and Thunderbird snaps and now use packages from mozillateam ppa. Of course I have made changes into apt configuration files to avoid re installation from snap depot.
I have not see any upgrade since the installation using apt-get update / upgrade and I ask myself if this is normal ?
Is there a way to see what new packages are available into ubuntu / kubuntu depots with dates ?
May be a changelog file or something like that ?
Or may a variation of apt command showing whats new on ppa depots ?
Thanks for any help and idea.
Best Regards.
Philippe
PS : apt config modification I do
Into apt.conf.d add the file
_ file 50unattended-upgrades-firefox with
Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins:: "LP-PPA-mozillateam:${distro_codename}";
Into preferences.de add two files
_ file firefox-for-nosnaps with
Package: firefox*
Pin: release o=Ubuntu*
Pin-Priority: -1
Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mozillateam
Pin-Priority: 1001
_ file thunderbird-for-nosnaps with
Package: thunderbird*
Pin: release o=Ubuntu*
Pin-Priority: -1
Package: thunderbird*
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mozillateam
Pin-Priority: 1001
