No, it's happening in 22.04 to me.

I don't think it's a bug, because what's actually happening matches what Canonical's website says is happening.
- quadrifoliate 4y agoKind of, but it's sneakily hidden. This is the webpage I'm looking at: https://ubuntu.com/security/esm https://ubuntu.com/security/esm In the "Security Patching" comparison between Ubuntu LTS and Ubuntu Pro for the 23,000 Ubuntu Universe packages, they say "Best effort" for Ubuntu LTS v/s "10 years for Ubuntu Pro". This would lead a reasonable person to think "Okay, maybe it's 2-3 years at least for LTS?" But in the graphic below for Universe, there is no orange section (unlike the 5 year line for Ubuntu Main). Which I think that Ubuntu LTS will now never guarantee any security patches for Universe, even if the distro came out yesterday. Am I reading this wrong? I hope I am, but it seems to match people's experience.
- captn3m0 4y agoYou're correct. Packages in universe were never marked as supported, and never got any updates. The LTS definition has always been "main"+"restricted".
