GH run-tests actions failing for ubuntu-latest os (with error about missing impish Release file) #253

Closed dbarnett closed 2 years ago

The test actions are failing at HEAD for the configurations using the ubuntu-latest os, with this error: E: The repository 'http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu impish Release' does not have a Release file.

It looks like since impish (20.10) wasn't an LTS release, it's already been removed from the ubuntu servers, so we can no longer use it to get testing packages. Should we now point that to "jammy" instead?

@snu5mumr1k any recommendations for updating the Ubuntu releases being used for this?

Impish is 21.04 actually. That is controlled by vim-from-testing. I've added that to the config because the vim version from Debian testing wasn't available in the latest Ubuntu.

Now I'd just drop vim-from-testing altogether and add the new LTS (ubuntu-22.04) to the list of OS we test on.
