The Ubuntu team is pleased to announce the release of Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS (Long-Term Support) for its Desktop, Server, and Cloud products, as well as other flavours of Ubuntu with long-term support.
As usual, this point release includes many updates, and updated installation media has been provided so that fewer updates will need to be downloaded after installation. These include security updates and corrections for other high-impact bugs, with a focus on maintaining stability and compatibility with Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. 22.04.1 also brings new RISC-V platform support, providing fresh images for the Allwinner Nezha and VisionFive StarFive boards.
Kubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, Ubuntu Budgie 22.04.1 LTS, Ubuntu MATE 22.04.1 LTS, Lubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, Ubuntu Kylin 22.04.1 LTS, Ubuntu Studio 22.04.1 LTS, and Xubuntu 22.04.1 LTS are also now available. More details can be found in their individual release notes (see ‘Official flavours’):

Maintenance updates will be provided for 5 years for Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Cloud, and Ubuntu Core. All the remaining flavours will be supported for 3 years. Additional security support is available with ESM (Extended Security Maintenance).
