'colima update' fails with error message about Ubuntu Mantic Release file

[breun]

Description

I noticed the colima 0.8.1 changelog says that the runtime can be updated using colima update, but when I try it, it fails like this:

❯ colima update

FATA[0001] error at 'refreshing package manager': error running [lima sh -c sudo apt-get update -y], output: "E: The repository 'http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports mantic Release' no longer has a Release file.", err: "exit status 100"

This is a strange one, does it still happen after a colima restart?

[breun]

Yes, I still get the same error after a colima restart:

Oh, what version of Colima were you on before the update?

[breun]

I've just upgraded from 0.8.0 to 0.8.1, but this may be the first time I attempted to run colima update and I've upgraded the colima version many times in the past already.

[mima0815]

Same here:
update colima from 0.8.0 to 0.8.1

it seems Ubuntu Mantic is out of support and they removed the "release" from it

is see you updated the images to ubuntu 24 lts. i then we need to update to use the new images

i recreate my colima instance with colima delete and colima start then update works again (new ubuntu image)

[breun]

I also recreated my instance, and now have an instance based on Noble Numbat (Ubuntu 24.04) instead of Mantic Minotaur (Ubuntu 23.10), and colima update works.
