You should at least take a look: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/
Many of your questions about Ubuntu's future plans will be or have been answered there. Ubuntu's developers, whether employed by...
You seem to have removed all the repositories rather than just those that you erroneously added and which were related to the maverick release.
In post #5 you said "I removed it" but what did you...
The Ubuntu community have been given more than sufficient notice of the intention to provide the Chromium browser as a snap rather than a .deb package.
...
The deb package 'chromium-browser' is a transitional package in 19.04 which installs snapd, if not already installed, the chromium snap and any other snaps that Chromium needs in order to function....
No, the move to a snap is permanent and will eventually extend to all supported releases.

I saw this on IRC last night:
https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2019/10/24/%23ubuntu-release.html#t17:01
I'm not sure exactly what it means in relation to the packages not being in synaptic but...
Which snap(s) do you think you have installed?
What is the output of the following?
snap changes
But it's in the repositories: :)
paul@C50B:~$ apt policy python3.8
python3.8:
Installed: (none)

I'm not understanding your point Frogs Hair as I see both htop and glances in the focal repositories. As neither snap are released by Canonical I don't see how they could ever be part of a widening...
snap list
Edit: beaten by two forum staff but at least we all agreed. :)
You seem to have hit a bug in Ubuntu 19.04 which I think been fixed in Ubuntu 19.10.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/e2fsprogs/+bug/1846499...
Bug #1847551 applies to Wayland sessions and is in the course of being fixed.
The Night Light should be working in Xorg sessions. Does that help?
I'm pretty sure that adding LXQt to the 18.04 release was never supported by the Lubuntu Team but unfortunately I'm unable to find a link to confirm my suspicions. I agree with mörgæs in that you...
I saw your original post but as I was unable to offer any help I decided not to reply.
I'm pretty sure that the implication you had installed vim from a snap or that you (re)install vim by...
Ok, obviously a lesson learned then - only use repositories for the release that you are using. :)
What errors are you getting? In a terminal run
sudo apt update
and post the output between ...
adavel, I'm confused about the version and flavour of Ubuntu that you are having a problem with.
You mention Kubuntu, Ubuntu, 19.10 but are trying to download from archived 'maverick'...
It's delete and re-create I'm afraid. :(
That was something that I found that I needed to do in order to update a port number in a bookmark that connects my PC to another PC via an SSH connection....
To delete or rename a bookmark just right click the bookmark in the sidebar and select 'Delete' or 'Rename'.
Adding a bookmark is not very obvious. Open the folder that you want to bookmark and...
Installing Chromium using synaptic installs a transitional .deb which then installs snapd (if not already installed), the chromium snap and any other snaps that the Chromium snap needs in order to...
Upgrade notifications aren't automatically enabled when a new version of Ubuntu is released.
It needs a manual change of a configuration file by the Release Team which they'll no doubt do only when...
Already being discussed here.
The upgrade process doesn't seem to have been activated yet.
There's sometimes a delay of a few days before upgrades to the next release are offered.
Edit: discussion on IRC earlier today:
https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2019/10/18/%23ubuntu-release.html#t08:41
Yes, Ubuntu 19.10 is still due for release today but it won't be released until it's ready. So at no specific time.
The release announcement usually comes before the end of the GMT/UTC day so it...
