La gent de Canonical ja no oferirà més suport per a la Ubuntu 4.10 a partir del 30 d’abril. Això implica que ja no hi haurà actualitzacions de seguretat per a aquesta versió. Es recomana migrar a una versió posterior.
On October 20th, 2004, Ubuntu announced its first public release, version 4.10. This release was accompanied by a commitment to ongoing security updates for a period of 18 months, which has been reflected in the comprehensive set of Ubuntu Security Notices issued since that time. The support period for Ubuntu 4.10 is now nearing its end, and Ubuntu 4.10 will officially reach end-of-life on April 30th, 2006. At that time, Ubuntu Security Notices will no longer include information or updated packages for Ubuntu 4.10.
