There were no changes in package managers. Now much of the database is no longer Ubuntu specific, but just upstream data as I recall (though our Software Centre does include snaps). but it's too long ago for me to remember clearly. I do remember the dropping of the Ubuntu Software Centre vaguely, some flak over the change and reasons for it.

Lubuntu 18.04 LTS comes with 'Software' which is `gnome-software` found in main Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (bionic) desktop, as well as `synaptic` package manager (see ) StartupDiskCreatorFailure2.jpg StartupDiskCreatorFailure.jpg So I have concluded that something changed in the Startup Disk Creator.Īny suggestions anybody has as to the problem? to the device (/dev/sbd).' I had used the Startup Disk Creator to make a working live boot thumb drive with one of the same drives and the same iso image a few days ago before the upgrade and it worked fine. For example, I tried to make a bootable thumb drive using a SanDisk thumb drive and got a message like: Installation failed 'could not write the disk image (home/able/Downloads/lubuntu. But after the upgrade, the Disk Creator does not work with the same thumb drives and two different iso images, one iso image is the same image that worked before.

The Disk Creator worked fine with two different thumb drives and two different iso images before the upgrade a couple of days ago. In addition, I have tried to use the Startup Disk Creator today (after the upgrade) and it is giving me failure messages, see attached screenshots below. After the upgrade, the Lubuntu Software Center no longer appears in the menu under System Tools. I just upgraded from Lubuntu 16.04 LTS to Lubuntu 18.04.3 LTS a day or two ago.
