Description

Ubuntu Jammy: use the fallback url old-releases.ubuntu.com if a new point release has already been released.

Schroeffu commented 1 year ago

hi @fadnincx

iso_url is now assembled, which may need to be discussed (jammy + focal)
fallback to old-releases.ubuntu.com at http status 404 only (jammy)
as soon as Jammy is no longer the latest LTS, canonical will only use the original URLs with releases.ubuntu.com(...) again, so it should continue to work.

@Schroeffu when we touch this thing, shouldn't we just implement that the latest patch level is used? Why should the builder fall back to an older version, if we are not fast enough updating this repo? I mean in most cases you will do a full update on/before first boot anyways :man_shrugging: .

So my proposal would be to dynamically update the url to the latest version instead of having it hard coded to a specific version.
