Ubuntu-18.04 GitHub CI runner has been deprecated and fully removed

Closed this issue · 0 comments

I'm not sure if you noticed but ever since we pulled the new GitHub CI/CD workflow setup, it stopped working and all GitHub workflow runs since then just freeze. This is because of unlucky timing. Once I finished that pull request and had it running to the point where tests just need fixing, GitHub decided to effectively remove that runner image entirely (see actions/runner-images#6002). So by the time you then pulled that PR, it was removed and unsupported.

This means as stated in #19 (comment) we would need to drop support for another version, Python 3.6. We could keep support for Python 3.6 by using ubuntu-20.04 instead of ubuntu-latest (22.04) but since Python 3.6 is already EOL, I feel like it makes more sense to just go ahead with ubuntu-latest.
