Usually such issues may be fixed by removing of auto-removable packages by
sudo apt autoremove
and then launching Aptitude in interactive mode by
sudo aptitude
and then hitting F10, Actions → Cancel pending actions, then g to ensure that all is well.

To install/reinstall the Ubuntu Update Manager ("Software Updater")
Tested on Ubuntu 18.04:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install update-manager
You'll now see this "Software Updater" icon when you press the Windows key and then search for "updater":
And this .desktop file will now be created: "/usr/share/applications/update-...

This version number is not from Ubuntu itself, but from one of its packages. They have the ubuntu name in it as they are specifically built for Ubuntu possibly with backports.
Actually, this seems to be systemd.
Current version in repos is 245.4-4ubuntu3.11, so you could just run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y after you started your container ...

Both problems, installation and running of signal-desktop as well as apt-get functionality returning this error, come from unexpected content in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-xenial.list. (In my case this was introduced when trying to install the beta version of signal-desktop).
I would simply remove the apt file in question:
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/...

There is no "official" development platform or setup for Ubuntu. Use what works best for you. If you name a common programming language or IDE, somebody develops for Linux using it. Use any platform or setup that you like, though you may find that developing your first hello-world application on Ubuntu makes your software easier to test.
There are ...

If your app is accepted / added by Snap, i.e. you can type:
sudo snap install --options myappname
...in order to install your app, it will be in the "Snap store/Software Center". They are one and the same.

To add an application to the software center(s) it needs to be a .deb package, first of all. In order for it to be properly ...

Instead of force-installing deprecated Python2 packages, you could go forward with a Python3 fork of FAHControl (see this discussion), which works fine for me. The Readme describes as precondition:
apt install python3-stdeb python3-gi python3-all python3-six debhelper dh-python gir1.2-gtk-3.0
I reduced this quite a bit, as not all packages are needed (e.g. ...

Wanted to know which is the way to get it with the latest stable changes?

The definition of advantage varies from user to user. But this might answer your question, If a ...

If you install with snap, you can add the flag --channel=edge, or just --edge, to get the newest release. The reason it isn't available by default is because it hasn't been tested enough to be considered "stable" by Snap. That doesn't mean it hasn't been tested by the application developers.
In my experience, The edge release is usually the same ...

You probably have misspelled the software name. It is shipped as Snap and named
Coq Interactive Theorem Prover - coq-prover.
This Snap seems to be really broken in terms of broken launcher file.
So you have two options:
manually create a launcher to file named /snap/bin/coqide and continue to use this Snap version of application.

This should list both if you have AVX and AVX2 support on this processor.

My usual answer to this question is that on Ubuntu, generally if you're trying to do something that requires the terminal, what you're trying to do actually just is complicated and technical, and would be equally hard on Windows. For example, if you run into computer trouble, and the solution online says to do something in the terminal, the reason is because ...

If you just want to run a program in Ubuntu, it is no harder than it is in windows -- you can just open the executable.
If you want to install, it can be as easy as using the graphical software installer if it is in the repos, or double clicking on the .deb file you download from the software author. However, some people think all that command line stuff ...

You "switched the shell to bash", but you don't say how. Did you just run bash as a subshell, or did you really change your shell using chsh? It sounds like the former, given the fact that it is still complaining that your shell is fish.
Try chsh -s /usr/bin/bash, then log out completely and log back in before trying the script again. If that ...

If you need, for example, to automatically switch to Java 8 (compiler 1.8), in an one-liner, for example for a script or continuous integration test suite, you can run

Sounds like the script does not have the right permissions to run in or access the /home/test/searx folder. Can you check permissions/owners with

Close synaptic package manager, and the "sudo apt install" command will automatically continue.
You cannot have two different applications that work with the APT package management system open at the same time.

I can't tell you why your compiled version is not working. Using the Ubuntu repo, you can get what you want and will get updated with the rest of the system:
sudo apt install python3.9 python3.9-venv
this will give you pip3.9 and the ability to create a virtual environment, something like this:
python3.9 -m venv $HOME/.venv/python3.9

Took a while to figure out, but I found the solution at least in my particular case.

First, make sure the installation was done correctly by running java --version, you should see something like:
Then, in order to locate the jdk folder, run the command below:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java
you can run ls /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64 and it will show ...
