|Ubuntu 12.04|

The OpenLP team has always supported older versions of Ubuntu, even when
|
|
|
|
they were no longer supported by Canonical. Unfortunately this places a
|
|
|
|
strain on the team and on which tools we can use to continue developing
|
|
|
|
OpenLP. For this reason we have decided to only support versions of
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu that Canonical themselves support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recently Canonical announced that they would be ending support for
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu 10.04 and 11.10 at the end of April. This means that only
|
|
|
|
versions of Ubuntu 12.04 and higher are supported by Canonical. OpenLP
|
|
|
|
therefore will only be supporting releases on Ubuntu 12.04 and higher as
|
|
|
|
of immediately. This also means that the upcoming 2.0.2 bugfix release
|
|
|
|
of OpenLP will only be available on Ubuntu 12.04 and higher.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since 12.04 is the latest Long Term Support release of Ubuntu, we are
|
|
|
|
hoping that this should not affect anyone. If you are affected, and
|
|
|
|
there is some reason why you cannot upgrade to a later version of
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu, you can come into our IRC channel and chat with us about getting
|
|
|
|
OpenLP running on your computer.
