Upgrading Linux Mint from 19.3 to 20.
All seems to have gone pretty smoothly so far.
Just followed the instructions here: https://linuxmint-user-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/upgrade-to-mint-20.html
I feel like some of the removal of 'foreign packages' that it suggested might bite me at some point, but let's see. I also cleaned out 13G(!) of apparently unused flatpak gubbins. It may be that I was using something these… but flatpak list
didn't show anything.
A few minor things, like some of my desktop environment preferences seem to have changed / gotten lost.
1. Things that needed installing again
- Signal Desktop https://signal.org/download/
- syncthing https://apt.syncthing.net/
2. Elsewhere
2.1. In my garden
