I run Lubuntu inside of VMware Fusion on a Mac. (I think this error is unrelated to the VM.)
When I try to update the system using Muon, it throws this error:
“An error occurred while applying changes:”
That’s all it says. Here’s some extra info:
lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS

Codename: focal
lshw and syslog are too big for this forum, but I can supply them if needed.
