Hi LUGers,

     Keeping track of Distrowatch is one of my pastimes and in the last
few days it seems:
> The Ubuntu team has announced an updated version of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS 
> is now available. The new media includes security fixes, including a 
> fix for the BootHole security issues. "The Ubuntu team is pleased to 
> announce the release of Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS (Long-Term Support) for its 
> Desktop and Server products. Unlike previous point releases, 18.04.6 
> is a refresh of the amd64 and arm64 installer media after the key 
> revocation related to the BootHole vulnerability, re-enabling their 
> usage on Secure Boot enabled systems. More detailed information can be 
> found here. Many other security updates for additional high-impact bug 
> fixes are also included, with a focus on maintaining stability and 
> compatibility with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS." Further information can be found 
> in the release announcement and in the distribution's release notes.

     Of course this is from <https://distrowatch.com>
