Ubuntu 25.04 has been unsupported for nearly two months. Third repost! How will sprites get security and feature upgrades?

In my sprites, more /etc/lsb-release says

…. DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION=“Ubuntu 25.04”

But Ubuntu 25.04 has been unsupported for nearly two months, since Jan 15 2026.

I created another sprite and it was unsupported from the get-go. Not a good look…

The question in a few other queries here (now closed) is, how will sprites get security and feature upgrades?

And when you roll out a new base VM, how can we most efficiently move / port / test our stuff for a new sprite? Can we re-use the old name somehow?

Sprites are awesome, but this is a pretty big issue right now.

(I just started this new topic for the third tim, my first one on Feb 1 went unanswered for 7 days and was auto-closed. The same happened to my second, after 2 weeks, no at at least included some details on what happens when you upgrade via Ubuntu. Let’s keep this one alive.)

Thanks
