Hi Brian,

Did so:

bash: /etc/profile.d/vte.sh: No such file or directory
george@Leysin:~$ sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[sudo] password for george:

ubuntu-desktop is already the newest version (1.417.5).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
george@Leysin:~$ ^C
george@Leysin:~$

  What I do find strange is that last evening I upgraded an older (2005) 
PC which had xubuntu 18.04 to 20.04 with no real difficulty. Yes, it 
never did stop searching for files to remove (in preparation for Clean 
UP), so this morning I just turned it off and rebooted. Then I ran the 
three apt commands, update, upgrade, and autoremove. That PC now runs 
xubuntu 20.04 just fine.

George
