Ubuntu Smooth upgrade

This was then ...

After 13.10 i decided enough of the short term 6-months affairs; LTS is my bag from now on

So when 14.04 came along I ran software-properties-gtk unclicked all my other software and ran

Code:

do-release-upgrade -d

expecting to have to go to clean soon after; but no it all went ace;
maybe a couple of things had to be redressed but i cannot recall which...
So on 14.04 until april but then said wisely wait till 21-07 to upgrade
So on 21-07 i ran

Code:

do-release-upgrade -d

again and it gave me warnings about it can take hours etc
but took One and a half in total if that ...one needs to pay attention to terminal
tho as there are a few options presented
which will need at least enter to be pressed; maybe 3 times in total

Then I reloaded still a tad apprehensive; and all was there in 16.04
Guake had disappeared [Python upgrade issue?]and had to be re-installed
and Audacious was acting up so deleted and re-installed

Skype fine !!! and Rosegarden ditto

So all this here to say congrats to the team ... this beast this Ubuntu is a slick animal
due to all the hard work and dedication ... and i am VERY appreciative and grateful
