Hello!

Once again, hats off to the development team. Lite Upgrade worked without a hitch!

One now on 2.4, several more to go...

Hey guy's

ok so i used the Lite Upgrade, which is cool and it worked, it saved all my files and setting, etc.

But I ran into one problem tho and it's with using Lite Software. ok so i click on Lite Software to open it up and it asks for my password, so i type my password in and after that instead of getting a popup of Lite Software, I get a popup of Updates Sources and it asks me if i want to update my software sources yes or no.  If i click yes then it runs the process of what Install Updates would do.

I don't know if i did something wrong or if Lite Upgrade broke it,  but i thought you guys should know.

Hello!

I see what you mean, but I don't think it's a bug. I THINK they're just calling up an apt-get update to make sure you get the latest version of whatever you're wanting to install...

In the picture example you showed for Lite Software, you get options for Install Software, Remove Software and Exit, but for me I don't get those options, it just goes straight to Update Sources and if i click yes, it goes through an update and after that i get a popup Error saying Updating Sources has failed and i click ok to close and that's it.

I'm sorry if i'm missing something or if it's a bug???

I think it would be fair to say you guys ROCK.  Updated without any hiccups.  As a matter of fact, it removed my previous screw up (when I previously updated and answered 'yes' to updating a PPA or something which changed something from LL 2.2 to Ubuntu 14.04?).

I was using the 2.4 Beta since it was released as a every-day desktop.
I typed

Code:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lite-upgrade-series2 -y

and done, all updates were applied.

checked my linux version

Code:

$ cat /etc/*-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux Lite 2.2"
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="14.04.2 LTS, Trusty Tahr"
ID=ubuntu
ID_LIKE=debian
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS"
VERSION_ID="14.04"
HOME_URL="http://www.ubuntu.com/"
SUPPORT_URL="http://help.ubuntu.com/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/"

Why it is 2.2?

Hi,

According to your description you only did the first step (installing the upgrade script).
Now you need to actually run it as Jerry pointed out:

click on Menu, Settings, Lite Upgrade.

In saying this:

1) The upgrade of a test box went fine except that Linux Lite Welcome error message.

2) I've also booted the 2.4 live CD 64bit, didn't play around much though. However I got this:
linux@linux:~$ cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux Lite 2.2"

So it still shows Linux Lite 2.2

3) For the future I would suggest to put the upgrade script/ menu entry under System, not Settings as it has nothing to do with the current user settings but is a full system upgrade.

PS: If any of these topics should be created in a different category, please let me know and I'll create a post there.
