Hello @GabrielBrascher
What you say makes sense from the support point of view. However, I'd follow official Ubuntu cadence in the following form:
1. Drop support for end-of-life packages, e.g Ubuntu 14 and 16. So that ACS supports only Ubuntu 18 and higher. I would recommend following the support cadence as in OpenNebula [here](https://docs.opennebula.io/6.0/installation_and_configuration/frontend_installation/opennebula_repository_configuration.html#repositories-ee), which supports Debian 9/10 and Ubuntu 18/21
2. Add a priority support for LTS, but still give customers a choice to install deps on non-LTS, such as 21.04. The main reason for me to choose 21.04 is the highly outdated version of Qemu, which I'm not able to customize.
In my network, I need to customize `QEMU` and add the latest matching version of `libvirt`. Both are very rapidly developed projects and the package version in the 20.04 LTS is already highly outdated

Yeah, makes sense... Let other core members consider this point.
BTW, I'm using qemu version 6.1-rc4 and libvirt 7.7.0 :smile:

We're closer to 22.04 in 4 months, project generally doesn't support and test releases against non-LTS releases of distros. Closing the PR on this remark, thanks.

I understand your point. But from our side, it adds quite a lot of complexity to the releasing cycle (more OS versions to be considered when testing release candidates, as well as more packages to be built/managed). Additionally, users might be encouraged to use an Ubuntu release that, in theory, is not stable and soon will be dropped.
You can have updated packages from Libvirt/Qemu added into Ubuntu 20.04 via [this repo](https://launchpad.net/~jacob/+archive/ubuntu/virtualisation). It would give you `QEMU emulator version 5.0.0` and `libvirtd (libvirt) 6.6.0`.
PS: I do not take any responsibilities if something breaks :slightly_smiling_face:.

I would rather wait to support an LTS release. Ubuntu 21.04 is not LTS.
The next LTS will be the 22.04 according to ["The Ubuntu lifecycle and release cadence"](https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle).
