    I'm presently using 20.04 as my primary system, Neon is available as a second option, and find it very nice.
    Because I'm a bit handicapped without the kipi plugins in Genview I just followed the instructions re. error reporting with
    Code:
    ubuntu-bug gwenview
    And ended up on this page:
    https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/focal/+...ueue_text=kipi

    Here I found a lot of useful information like digikam/showfoto and kipi have been accepted and are now in Proposed.
    Because of the warnings I've read here (and problems experienced 1st hand) re. using proposed I will be patient and wait for these packages to show up in the regular 'pockets'.

      They are in the archive now.
      Code:
      apt-get install kipi-plugins
      Gwenview/Discover can't find them, as the appstream data is wrong. Currently fixing that.

        Indeed, I just found they have been upgraded to the regular repository
        Because I installed via Muon no problems with the strange path form Gwenview.

        Nice!

          Synaptic History

          There were only 60 packages in Proposed today. Python3.8, office and a new Kernel update are among them.

          Removing Moun in favor of Synaptic does not help.
          Code:
          sudo apt purge muon && sudo apt install synaptic
          -Synaptic history remains empty for incoming updates, but it works normally. In the other classroom, Synaptic was written by The Hand Of God. Sucks!

          -Logout, restart and shutdown is delayed. Disabling Google Services in Sync is also delayed when asked to relaunch Chrome. All present in kde 5.18.80 too.
          Code:
          dpkg -l|grep google
          ii  google-chrome-unstable                        83.0.4093.3-1                               amd64        The web browser from Google
          -Another long lasting issue on our AMD motherboard, some windows (apps) become unusable, they're disappearing top right corner. An app that opens normally must stay open to override this bug.

          KSysGuard, Office, GUFW are among them. At worst, some apps won't even close: KSysGuard is the only place to kill them. This bug introduces some very large desktop stability fluctuations.

          -The installer instead of scanning the HD, should have an option in the boot menu to select NVIDIA. As for Intel, this is a source of pollution for AMD. Not very hard to do.

          Kernel 5.6 stable should be out in just a few hours. If it has to reach the final build, it will be in Proposed this week. It was a perfect-stable cycle here.

          Code:
          ls /lib/modules
          5.4.0-20-generic  5.6.0-050600rc7-generic

            Kernel 5.6 Stable Enabling Synaptic History

            As expected, the cycle was too stable for an 8th release candidate, Kernel 5.6 has reached the stable channel.

            Enabling upgrade/update to restore history in Synaptic (Commit log/Reload Package Information).

            Removing RC-7 that is still first in the boot sequence in Synaptic.

              Oh, nooozzz!
              I saw 161 packages in the pipe today, made snapshots first, and then did the apt thing. I rebooted and the desktop appeared in its usual 11 seconds time. Since I saw a python update in the list I decided to check the Minecraft launcher. IT was MISSING! What'll I do during this isolation period? I downloaded the Minecraft.deb version from the Minecraft website and attempted to install it. The attempt failed.
              The following packages have unmet dependencies:
              minecraft-launcher : Depends: libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.14.0) but it is not installable
              E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
              Checking the control file in the package:
              Code:
              Package: minecraft-launcher

              The installation attempt died at libpango, but I am not going through the other packages to see if the ones already installed are the correct version number.

              It looks like I'll be playing Minecraft with MultiMC and the Fabric API until the java launcher can work again.

              EDIT: I forgot to mention that my WINE apps, EKG and SpaceEngine-98.exe, continued to run nicely. So did Steam. In fact, I ran Castle Story for the first time since 2017 and it displayed nicely. Previously, the polygons which made up the landscape were disassembled by a few pixels along each border, making the game unplayable.

                    If that I have no doubt. The surprise would be if there wasn't. You and the team do great work! Many thanks!

                    Anyway, I installed MultiMC with the Fabric API and it works beautifully. I need Minecraft.deb so I can use the Forge mod loader.

                      I also noticed that the Google talk plugin was removed yesterday. Will that require a wait on Google?

                        I think likely removed because of the same libpango issue. If so, should be able to install it again (from wherever you got it) when that is fixed.

                            So, I have an 18.04 system that I want to migrate to 20.04. Best way? I'd like to help in the Beta Testing if at all possible.

                            Thanks!
                            You certainly received many suggestions on how to migrate to 20.04.

                            I am wondering how you are going as I haven't seen any progress update. I hope that I haven't missed it!
