[Gambas-user] Installation Problem

[John Dovey]

I have no idea why it's using the server it is. All I did was to follow the
instructions on http://gambaswiki.org/edit/install/ubuntu
Added the PPA, ran update, did install.
I am on a Linux 16 system as I noted, so I have no idea why it's trying to
access a 20.04 repo.

It's not a crisis for me any more because I've installed individually each
package that my app complained about, so there is just enough for it to
run.
