Just my 0.02$... When I install Ubuntu on a new disk, I always partition with a separate /home. This way, I when I do a fresh install (typically 15-20 min), I set DO NOT format and use as /home that partition. When I reboot, I have the new LTS, all my files and .config in my /home

Can you not just be polite though? Do we want the default reply here to be "gruff with loosely associated facts?" Essentially the question of "what happened to xxx package" was met with a multi paragraph rant about LTS and Ubuntu and whatever. It didn't provide the answer but instead veered

This answer is a bit rude and doesn't answer the original query. There is an unmet dependency in Ubuntu 20.04 and the latest release can no longer be built. See https://discuss.pixls.us/t/what-happened-with-the-obs-builds/33588/2?u=darix for more information. You can always try the flatpak.

As old Ubuntu versions may and probably are lacking of some up to date dependencies, probably installing a flatpak package would be a good solution. Also I struggle to imagine a use-case where someone needs the newest darktable version but refuses to update whole distro. Why would it be? W
