17.3 xfce upgrade now available in Update Manager!

Post by mingle »

Hi guys,

Just ran Update Manager this morning (about 15 mins ago) and the option to upgrade to 17.3 is now available.

Running now - 1st time I've done an upgrade rather than a clean install - wish me luck!

Cheers,

Mike.

Good luck! :)

No fear, upgrading within the 17-series should be effortless and problem-free. Because they all share the same codebase: Ubuntu 14.04.

The ISO links are up now too! Here we go! I did the upgrade last night and it seemed to go smoothly. The kernel stayed at 3.16.x. and GIMP still reported 17.2 when booting (dual boot screen).

I'm mostly done with a fresh DVD/ISO install on my backup/second PC and it is also going well so far. I'm annoyed at the fact that old broken version of file-roller (archive manager) is still there though, and still very old VLC version, but at least that one works properly.
