   	Sorry to hear that the updates have gotten so weird.   
   	Don't care for the concepts in Flatpaks or in Snaps but   
   then after paying for yearly or bi yearly updates to Mandriva   
   for 5 years then to be left without help and a computer that   
   was very unhappy with 2011.  Probably why I prefer a sturdy   
   Rolling Relase and am now using Linux 6.0.5 & KDE 5.26.2.   
   Delivered via apt-rpm via Synaptic.   
      
   The thill of a working new kernel and getting my Usenet   
   connection back after a glitch at the server is like   
   a taste of my youth.
