So I ran: sudo apt dist-upgrade again and got this result: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. 197 additional updates are available with UA Infrastructure ESM. To see these additional updates run: apt list --upgradable See https://ubuntu.com/advantage or run: sudo ua status Then I ran sudo apt list --upgradable and got the long list of options that one sees when running sudo apt full-upgrade But I don't know which of those options I should try to use or how to use them (in what sequence). --------------- > I did the apt dist-upgrade and got these error messages: > > Error!
