Upgrade from plucky dev branch to Ubuntu 25.04

Ubuntu Version:
Ubuntu Plucky 25.04 (development branch)

Desktop Environment (if applicable):
KDE Plasma

Problem Description:
I Want to upgrade from the dev branch but after 12hours when i enter do-release-upgrade it says still no new version.

Relevant System Information:

Screenshots or Error Messages:

What I’ve Tried:
do-release-upgrade and sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade


NO do not use do-release-upgrade; as this command is to upgrade to the next version release (none other at this time) .
From the development versioning -

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

will bring you to the final version.

-all there is to it-

Oh ok bro, thanks for your help

You can also check with this:
cat /etc/os-release

I’ll just add the following.

There are times (esp. when on the development or unstable release) where you’ll need more than apt upgrade… ie. you may rarely need to use apt full-upgrade

From man apt you’ll see the following

       full-upgrade (apt-get(8))
           full-upgrade performs the function of upgrade but will remove currently installed packages
           if this is needed to upgrade the system as a whole.

Those cases are rare, but there are times when that extra option is required.
