Ubuntu Pro updates

[ricmarques]

Hi again, @mickee

I'm following up to my previous reply, because I saw that meanwhile @jymm posted the following in another topic:

Ubuntu MATE 24.04.1 LTS Released

The one change I made since yesterday was to uninstall file roller and engrampa and installed Xfce's Xarchiver which seems to have much better functions than file roller. As for the grey out Ubuntu Pro updates after I ran the command to enable Ubuntu Pro to my subscription it suggested I run the command <sudo apt install ubuntu-pro-client> after that the greying out went away and I was able to update completely.

So, @mickee , I would also make sure that the ubuntu-pro-client software package is installed in your Ubuntu MATE 24.04.1 LTS ("Noble Numbat") computer. In a fresh install of Ubuntu MATE 24.04.1 LTS that I've done in a VM (Virtual Machine), the ubuntu-pro-client packages were automatically installed, although I have NOT enabled "Ubuntu Pro" in that VM. You can run the following command to see if that ubuntu-pro-client package is installed:

$ sudo apt list --installed | grep -i 'ubuntu-pro'
 
WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts.
 
ubuntu-pro-client-l10n/now 32.3.1~24.04 amd64 [installed,upgradable to: 33.2~24.04.1]
ubuntu-pro-client/now 32.3.1~24.04 amd64 [installed,upgradable to: 33.2~24.04.1]

If you find out that ubuntu-pro-client package is NOT installed, then I suggest that you run the following command to install it (as was suggested by @jymm):

sudo apt install ubuntu-pro-client

I hope this helps
