Bug Description

Hi,

Ubuntu offers Ubuntu Core for the Raspberry Pi platform.

The Raspberry Pi foundation offers the program rpi-imager to ease creating SD cards for the raspberry, which offers a selection of available OS installations, including Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Server, and Ubuntu core. The rpi-imager is available both as a regular ubuntu package and as a snap.

The default list of images available is pulled/updated from

https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/os_list_imagingutility_v3.json

when starting rpi-imager, but it does not contain the list of ubuntu images. Instead, it has a subitem list pulled from

https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/raspi/os_list_imagingutility_ubuntu.json

where Ubuntu itself maintains and offers the list of available Ubuntu images for the Raspberry Pi.

This list is not updated as part of the Ubuntu Core release process. Although Ubuntu Core 22 has been released, the list still shows Core 20 only.
