I bring up the software update, loads the list of software, and then it comes up with the update for Unbutu 15:04, I need to have 14:10 first before I can upgrade to 15:04.  Tried to update in the Terminal, this is what I got.   (do-release-upgrade)
"Checking for a new Ubuntu release

Can not upgrade

An upgrade from 'trusty' to 'vivid' is not supported with this tool."


Turns out that this upgrade to 15.04 from Ubuntu may not be an LTS (Long-Term Support) version. I will be waiting for the new LTS version 15.04 to show up in the software upgrader before I upgrading. Thank you for your help!

Hello kcook,

I think you maybe better off directly on the Ubuntu Forum
Whilst Linux Lite is based on Ubuntu there are difference.

Googling shows plenty of 14.04 > 14.10 items:

Like: 14.04 to 14.10

 :o   I have Ubuntu 14.04, I need 14:10,  Software Update informs me that 15.04 is available but it will not install.  I cleared all the items on the update page, the update program came up but then could not install.  Also I am having issues installing updates on a daily basis.   What can be done to fix this issue? Thanks!
