Building on Jammy is known to cause issues. c.f. armbian/build#8572
WalkthroughA single documentation file was modified: docs/Developer-Guide_Building-with-Multipass.md. The introductory line was updated to state Ubuntu 24.04 as the officially supported build platform, replacing Ubuntu 22.04. All other content, including references to Jammy (22.04), remains unchanged. No code or public/exported declarations were altered.

Align headline with deprecation note for Jammy and call it out explicitly.
Good update to 24.04, but the rest of the page still instructs using Jammy. Add the codename and an explicit warning with the reference mentioned in the PR.

Add Noble codename and explicit Jammy deprecation warning
Ubuntu 24.04 is officially supported (codename “Noble”); update the headline to include “(Noble)” and insert a warning that using Jammy (22.04) via Multipass is unsupported (see armbian/build#8572):

In docs/Developer-Guide_Building-with-Multipass.md around line 3, update the
Ubuntu reference to include the codename by changing "Ubuntu 24.04" to "Ubuntu
24.04 (Noble)" and insert a short warning paragraph directly after this sentence
stating that using Jammy (22.04) via Multipass is unsupported; reference
armbian/build#8572 for details. Ensure the new warning is clearly marked (e.g.,
"Warning:"), placed before any instructions that assume the supported platform,
and keep links intact.

I agree to drop Jammy, but building armhf rootfs and several u-boots on Noble is aslo broken while this still works on Jammy: https://armbian.atlassian.net/browse/AR-2555 In reality more things works on Jammy then with Noble. |
I don't mind either way. It just ought to be consistent and currently it isn't. https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/ @igorpecovnik Do as you please, I will not argue with you for arguments' sake. I already found the problem. I have proposed a solution. Implement a different one if you want. Or leave it messed up as it currently is. It really is up to you. |
