Upgrading from Fiesty Fawn to Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon

Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon Linux Distribution is available

If you are already using the upto now latest version of Drupal (7.04 Feisty Fawn), this upgrade will quick and painless. At least I am sure that it will be painless while the quick part will depend on the power of your processor and your internet connection. In Fiesty Fawn (and probably in other older versions), a notice will appear at the top of the regular update window informing you that a new distribution of Ubuntu is available for download. If you opt to upgrade as opposed to just installing the available updates, you will launch the update process with the following progress dialogue. Upgrading Ubuntu to version 7.10

If you have my kind of luck, you might see the following message which is most probably a result of congested networks due to everyone rushing to upgrade their Ubuntu computers to the latest distribution.

Missing Ubuntu Studio packages

I just noticed (during another trial to upgrade Ubuntu 7.04 to 7.10) that the missing packages belong to Ubuntu-studio. My guess is that the creators of Ubuntu-Studio have not updated or otherwise created Gutsy-Gibbon compatible packages of their software (hence the failed attempts to update Ubuntu whent he Studio theme and applications are active). I am going to uninstall all the Ubuntu-studio applications and added themes, icon-packs etc and then attempt to upgrade Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn to Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon
