      Interesting - but in the recent years there was nearly nothing but LibreOffice updates in the *Ubuntu backports.
      Debian LXQt • Kubuntu • openSUSE KDE • Linux Mint • Windows • macOS
      Desktop: HP Elite SFF 805 G9 • Laptop: Apple MacBook Pro 13" • and others

      important things to do after installation (24/26.04)get rid of Snap script (20.04 +)
      install traditional Firefox script (22.04 +)​ • install traditional Thunderbird script (24.04 +)
