I disabled, like commenting out, most of these PPA’s (and potentially other Debian APT repos) and then executed a ‘downgrade foreign packages’, which will reset the packages back to the original version of Linux Mint 21, before upgrading to Mint 22.
If you are unsure of about any of those APT repos, just look in your: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory. The only official file is official-package-repositories.list, all other files are most likely be added by your in the past. Commenting out the content of the *.list files is recommended and the mintupgrade command should help you downgrade those foreign packages if needed. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions.
What’s a PPA, and, if it’s alright to ask, which things did you need to downgrade or remove before upgrading mint?
I’m still on mint cinnamon 21, saving up for a beefier drive to back up to before I would upgrade.
PPA= Personal Package Archives.
