If one's system is running 21.3 Virginia, is there an upgrade path to 22.2?

@quoidian You have to upgrade firt to 22.

After you will be able to upgrade to 22.2.

@linuxmint

@angedestenebres @linuxmint ok. The leap from 21.3 to 22 is explained where?

@angedestenebres @linuxmint << Your version of Linux Mint is 'Zara'. Only Linux Mint 21.3 'Virginia' can be upgraded to Linux Mint 22 'Wilma'. >>

System reports - system information:
Distro: Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia base: Ubuntu 24.04 noble.

Should I edit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/official-package-repositories.list ? s/virginia/zara/ and s/jammy/noble/ ???

@quoidian Normally you just have to mintupgrade tool.

However, Mint 21.3 is based on Jammy. If you system reports see it as Noble there is something strange.

@angedestenebres @linuxmint
Yes. Update Manager reports that a Zara was installed but the apt sources file was untouched and all the other reporters say the system is Virginia, except mintupgrade who says zara. Rebooting didn't resolve.

@quoidian I guess you have to report the issue to Mint Team: https://github.com/linuxmint/mintupgrade/issues

@angedestenebres @linuxmint they have a workaround involving editing the /etc/apt/sources.d/official-* file .
