Ubuntu 25.04 is now unsupported. How will sprites get security and feature upgrades?

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

says …. DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION=“Ubuntu 25.04”

But Ubuntu 25.04 has been unsupported since Jan 15 2026.

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

Note that I created my sprites yesterday, so they were unsupported from the get-go. Not a good look…

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.

Thanks!
