Does anyone have a ball park estimate of when a Storj docker release will happen for Ubuntu 20.04?

Storj will work as long as you can get Docker installed on the host. You have two options. Either install the `docker.io` package from the main Ubuntu repo, or install `docker-ce` from the Docker repo using the 19.10 tag until they release a 20.04 tag.

The docker-ce Ubuntu package is now available for 20.04. The official Docker repo has `focal` distribution tag. The below DO link is my recommended method for installing Docker and docker-compose on Ubuntu.

I can’t answer your question, but do yourself a favour and stay with LTS releases after upgrading to 20.04. The interim release are only supported for 9 month.

I agree on that. i was on 19.04 and it was a pain to update once the support ended… So I ended up completely reinstalling 20.04. So I can’t say anything about the upgrade itself but 20.04 works good for me.
