    Ubuntu 20.04 upgrade corrupted Bleachbit

    When I upgraded from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04, Bleachbit was run and this error came up:


    Error when checking for updates:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/share/bleachbit/bleachbit/GUI.py", line 1160, in check_online_updates
    updates = Update.check_updates(options.get('check_beta'),
    File "/usr/share/bleachbit/bleachbit/Update.py", line 155, in check_updates
    opener.addheaders = [('User-Agent', user_agent())]
    File "/usr/share/bleachbit/bleachbit/Update.py", line 87, in user_agent
    dist = platform.dist()
    AttributeError: module 'platform' has no attribute 'dist'


    Then I tried to terminal install Stacer to replace Bleachbit;
    but oguzhaninan repository in Turkey is out of business !


    What should I do that is easy for a Linux user and not a terminal user?
    Fix Bleachbit problem ?
    Install Stacer another way ?
    Use another simple replacement for Bleachbit ?

    Works here (bleachbit 4.0) Remove bleachbit and install the deb from its website https://www.bleachbit.org/download/linux (get the .deb for 19.10)

    How to install Stacer? It's in the 20.04 repos...
    Code:
    sudo apt install stacer
