thanks for the clarifications, you might want to update the documentation that you also support 16.04 |

I'm closing this ticket as "Works as Designed" since we only provide Ubuntu 16.04 packages for 3.2. Regards, |

Hi francisdb - it's a mechanism for pinning to a release series. We use a separate repo per MongoDB release series to prevent packaging systems from upgrading across release series without a manual step to ensure the upgrade is intentional. If you want to avoid this, you can use the "stable" repo which will always point to the latest stable release series. (http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu xenial/mongodb-org/stable Release) |

what is the rationale behind introducing a new apt repo per mongo version? |

Ah ok, 3.2 is fine, I just thought that xenial was not supported because the docs only mention 14.04 https://docs.mongodb.com/v3.2/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/ |

francisdb, looking at the repository it seems we only have 3.2 packages for xenial. MongoDB 3.2 is our latest stable release, any reason why you'd prefer 3.0? |
