No "Build Image Selection" for old site configured for manual deploys

I am trying to update an old site that still uses Ubuntu Trusty. When I go to Deploy Settings, I do not see the section that lets me select the build image on my other sites.

I see this section on my other sites that need updating. This particular one differs by using manual deploys.

I tried setting an environment variable _system_version with the value 20.04 but got an error message - variable names must start with a letter.

Any suggestions about what to try next?

Sites using Manual Deploys are not affected as they don’t build on Netlify. Since there’s no building required, this setting won’t make a difference which is why it won’t exist.

Point being, you need not worry about this change for manual deploys and there’s nothing you need to do.
