When I run lsb_release -a I get:
rsteff at ENU-1:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic
rsteff at ENU-1:~$
I don't recall restarting, so I just did that.
Still shows Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS, which I expected.
Also running Software Updater still fails, then works.
Other projects are in front of digging deeper for now.
Thanks for your thoughts and help.
