Ubuntu 10.04 is still there, and still great. I'm still using it on my home and work machines--Gnome 2-based, PPAs and backports to update any apps that are a bit tired, and the whole thing's really stable. I'm not sure what I'll do when support runs out for it, though. I'm kind of holding out that they'll announce another two years of desktop support!
- keithpeter 14y agoIf you are using ppas and backports, the security update situation gets complex anyway. People have been trying to pin down the situation for Gnome Shell packages on 12.04, looks like not 5 years because they are 'Universe' packages. The 10.04 server packages, therefore the base, have 5 years of support, so I guess you could simply risk carrying on with 10.04 after the EOL for the desktop? Maybe not for the work machine.
