    Dear community,

    we have successfully bitbaked CoreCDP 2.2.2 images with some minor modifications, e.g. added required packages.

    This was all done on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.

    We have also tried Ubuntu 11.04, but this version is no longer supported by Canonical as of 2012-10-28.

    We then realised that Ubuntu 10.04 has just expired (2013-05-09), but the repositories are still kept on the servers for now (who knows for how long).

    How should we approach this? Is there any upcoming toolchain release which will support later versions? Or perhaps Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server will help, as it’s supported until 2015-04?

    Thank you!

    Mark, did you ever get any answer to your question?
    We are in the exact same situation!

    Could anybody from MultiTech give us an answer?

    Regards
    Klaus

    Hi guys,

    There will be a CoreCDP release coming that will support 12.04 LTS, but I don’t have a release date to share yet. I would recommend sticking with 10.04 LTS until it gets released.

    You won’t ever lose complete access to the Ubuntu package archives for 10.04 — they move them to another server eventually and you can just change your APT sources. The desktop expiration just means you lose security updates for the desktop packages. You are certainly free to build on 10.04 Server if it makes you more comfortable from a security standpoint.
