| Jan 2 at 22:54 | comment | added | muru | To me, your answer basically is the equivalent of "Q: I'm having problems filtering text with grep. A: Me too. I got it working with the Silver Searcher. Maybe also <some random idea>". I'd have downvoted and flagged that for deletion as very low quality. | |
| Jan 2 at 22:46 | comment | added | muru | Considering OP's problem is with the software centre in the first place, it's rather funny you'd assume people would use it to get something else to solve the problem - for all they know, it might not be possible to do that at that point. To me it seemed like you were asking for Ubuntu to enable automatic updates, not the user, who's have problems with getting updates to work in the first place. | |
| Jan 2 at 22:43 | comment | added | GlenM | @muru ok, I will admit I assumed people could copy and paste Synaptic into the software centre. Once you run it it has three buttons - reload the database, mark updates and apply. As to your original reply at no point did I refer to or ask about a feature request. What I did say was maybe to enable automatic updates. | |
| Jan 2 at 21:38 | comment | added | muru | @GlenM then say that? They might be familiar with the software store, but there's no reason to assume that they know what synaptic is these days. | |
| Jan 2 at 21:29 | comment | added | GlenM | Even if it isn't how do you install software on Ubuntu? Open the software centre and search for Synaptic. I am sure anyone looking for answers is already familiar with that. | |
| Jan 2 at 21:17 | comment | added | GlenM | Strange because it was installed be default on my Xubuntu 22.04, on three systems. | |
| Jan 2 at 18:11 | comment | added | Thomas Ward Mod | @GlenM Synaptic hasn't been installed by default for ages on Ubuntu. It's no longer a default on Ubuntu desktop systems. | |

| Jan 2 at 12:26 | comment | added | muru | I was able to install the updates by <some tool not available by default> should at least mention how that tool is to be obtained or used. Otherwise the majority of your "answer" was composed of "me too" + "random feature request for something that already exists". | |
