The configuration file to edit should be shown when you run “do-release-upgrade”, as long as there is a new version after your LTS. But for some reason it wasn’t there (or I missed it) many times before when I previously ran this command. So at least now I won’t lose it anymore.
sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade (because the release upgrade command will require you to have all current updates)
sudo nano /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
Change Prompt=lts to Prompt=normal
sudo do-release-upgrade
That’s pretty much it. Note that you can’t jump a version, so for instance if you’re on 17.10 and you want 18.10, you’ll have to upgrade first to 18.04 LTS and then to 18.10
