Upgrading from Ubuntu 10.10 to Ubuntu 11.04 with Trinity installed

WARNING: Using the Ubuntu CD to upgrade your Trinity system will BREAK YOUR INSTALLATION Instead, please follow the instructions given below.

We recommend you perform the Ubuntu recommended upgrade with this release. To do so:

Make sure you have update manager installed.

Use the Adept Manager to install the update-manager package, or run

sudo apt-get install update-manager

Run the update-manager through console

Open a terminal and run:

update-manager

Check for updates and install all updates before proceeding

You need to have the latest packages to proceed.

Run the distribution upgrade tool

Click the upgrade button. Read the release notes, then let it download the upgrade tool. Authenticate with your password and let the upgrade run.

On the verification screens, MAKE SURE THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY ESSENTIAL KDE3 PACKAGES IN THERE

For example, kdebase-kde3 or kdelibs-kde3.

You can allow the upgrade tool to check for obsoletes. It should not remove trinity packages.
