Canonical Halts Upgrades to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Due to 'Critical Bug'

Last week, the first point release of Ubuntu 24.04 LTS arrived and with it, upgrades from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS enabled.

Only, those upgrades didn’t go work out well for everyone.

So Canonical has hit pause on upgrades to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

...

In reply, Canonical says it halted upgrades “due to a critical bug in ubuntu-release-upgrader in the way it’s using the apt solver” (though other, recurring, issues have been filed on Launchpad and mentioned on social media since last week).
