New bugfix release 21.2.6

[Timo Aaltonen]

[Impact]

This is the last point-release of the 21.2.x-series, we should put it in impish so latest bugfixes would get there, and in focal for 20.04.4 image.

[Test case]

Install the updates, test desktop use and some basic games etc on at least AMD and Intel hw.

[Where things could go wrong]

It's possible that some apps (like games) might regress on some hw, but there should not be a big risk for more wider bugs appearing in this update, since upstream and vendor (Intel) CI machinery have tested these.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I have installed version 21.2.6 by:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/display && sudo apt upgrade
since some time.
I never had noticed problems and bug 1950044 was fixed by that.

[UlfZibis (ulf-zibis)]

Hi, since 4 weeks the state is "fix released".
But I do not see this with:
sudo apt dist-upgrade

Why?

[Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton)]

the jammy queue has had 21.3.x for weeks now

[UlfZibis (ulf-zibis)]

Yes, but this bug is about focal (+ impish), and I'm missing 21.2.x (or 21.3.x) on focal updates.

[Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton)]

this bug is "fix committed" for both focal and impish, meaning the update is in the respective -proposed pocket.

see comment #5

Hi Timo,

When we can expect that to be part of 'focal-updates' ?

[Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100)]
