More updates: Ubuntu, WordPress

Just updated this server to Ubuntu 8.04 (why do they always have these odd version numbers?). As always, it was incredibly difficult: I had to type this entire command:

do-release-upgrade

and even remember to press Enter afterwards! This Linux stuff is really too tough for us mere users…

Also, WordPress 2.5.1 on this blog and a couple others. Incidentally, if you’ve just upgraded to 2.5.1 and suddenly your RSS feed is empty, you were probably hit by this bug. That link includes info for fixing it, too (basically, you have to replace two files with newer development versions).

    The releases are year/month 2008/04 = 8.04. Quite handy actually.
