Ubuntu's release cycle policy is simply incompatible with RabbitMQ's release strategy, which itself is a bit crappy. Ubuntu/Debian will never keep pace with this.
I think there is three options to decouple Ubuntu's and RabbitMQ's release cycles: 1) Change Ubuntu's policy of pinning software versions to Ubuntu releases and do update the Ubuntu packages frequently to new RabbitMQ versions. (Not really recommended.) 2) Drop RabbitMQ debian/ubuntu packages and turn it into snaps, where each major RabbitMQ release gets it's own snap channel, along a 'latest' channel. This way, every admin can actively select the version, and can perform the upgrade through each version without skipping one, simply by choosing the snap channel. 3) Completely drop RabbitMQ from Ubuntu (due to their crappy release strategy), and let users use it with docker/podman, where RabbitMQ itself publishes their docker images. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2074309 Title: upgrades won't start due to feature flags To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/2074309/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
