Alpha 3 Lucid Lynx

È uscita la terza alpha di Lucid Lynx, il prossimo rilascio di Ubuntu che uscirà il 29 aprile prossimo, come indicato nella seguente pagina.

Ricordo che la versione alpha è la versione di sviluppo di Ubuntu, che diventerà in seguito stabile.
Quindi non utilizzatela per un uso quotidiano, in quanto potenzialmente soggetta a bug critici che potrebbero portare anche alla perdita di dati.

Inoltre vi segnalo che è possibile testare le varie immagini ISO, facendo dei test case, segnalando eventuali bug, come descritto nelle varie pagine del Gruppo Test .

Qui c’è l’annuncio:

Welcome to Lucid Lynx Alpha 3, which will in time become Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.

Pre-releases of Lucid are *not* encouraged for anyone needing a stable
system or anyone who is not comfortable running into occasional, even
frequent breakage. They are, however, recommended for Ubuntu developers and
those who want to help in testing, reporting, and fixing bugs.

Alpha 3 is the third in a series of milestone CD images that will be
released throughout the Lucid development cycle. The Alpha images are
known to be reasonably free of showstopper CD build or installer bugs, while
representing a very recent snapshot of Lucid. You can download it here:

http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid/alpha-3/ (Ubuntu)
http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid/alpha-3/ (Ubuntu Server for UEC and EC2)
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/lucid/alpha-3/ (Kubuntu)
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/lucid/alpha-3/ (Xubuntu)
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/releases/lucid/alpha-3/ (Edubuntu)
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/mythbuntu/releases/lucid/alpha-3/ (Mythbuntu)
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/lucid/alpha-3/ (Ubuntu Studio)

See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors for a list of mirrors.

Alpha 3 includes a number of software updates that are ready for wider
testing. Please refer to http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/lucid/alpha3 for
information on changes in Ubuntu.

NOTE: if you installed Lucid prior to Alpha 3, you may have libmysqlclient16
7.0.9-1 installed. This package was present in the Ubuntu archive by mistake
and was retracted, but because it has a later version number than the real
libmysqlclient16 package, the real package will not be installed
automatically on upgrade. To ensure that you have the official package
installed on your Lucid system and will receive security support for it
throughout Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, please run:

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient16/lucid

and follow the instructions.

This is quite an early set of images, so you should expect some bugs. For a
list of known bugs (that you don’t need to report if you encounter), please
see:

If you’re interested in following the changes as we further develop
Lucid, have a look at the lucid-changes mailing list:

http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lucid-changes

We also suggest that you subscribe to the ubuntu-devel-announce list
if you’re interested in following Ubuntu development. This is a
low-traffic list (a few posts a week) carrying announcements of
approved specifications, policy changes, alpha releases, and other
interesting events.

Bug reports should go to the Ubuntu bug tracker:

Enjoy,
