I went to add a new application called Planner from Synaptic and got a few error messages, files not found. In terminal, an update shows:

Am I to assume this is simply because Eon (vers 19.10 ) is no longer supported ?

Yes. Move to a supported release. It is lkely that because you didn't move before support ended then a full reinstall will be needed.

Regardless, backup anything you don't want to lose before doing anything. Sometimes bad things happen during complex changes like OS upgrades.

Yes. Move to a supported release.

I would also highly recommend that you stick to LTS releases and stay away from standard releases.

Okay thanks. Yes, I always do a fresh install ( after backups) of any release.
