Attempting a forced install of python3-software-properties=0.96.20, software-properties-common=0.96.20 also removes critical (necessary?) files: software-properties-gtk and ubuntu-desktop. It also suggests autoremoving multiple other critical apps and support files.
Since this update is not ESM (security) related (that I know of), I chose to 'pin/lock' the existing installed versions of these upgrade files (python3-software-properties, software-properties-common, software-properties-gtk) and will live with the installed versions until upgrading to Ubuntu Unity 22.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2067662 Title: Cannot install software-properties-common=0.96.20.13 on Ubuntu 16.04 anymore To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/2067662/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
