RE: Error when trying to install updates - stevef - 12-27-2025
The version of Linux Lite on your system is based on an Ubuntu release named noble. You have added some software (audio-recorder) which is from a PPA (Personal Project Archive). The PPA for audio-recorder does not have a release compatible with noble. This conflict is causing the update process to error.
The incompatible audio-recorder software should be removed from the system.
After removing the audio-recorder software, ensure that the audio-recorder PPA reference is removed from the update list.
Removing the PPA reference from the update list should allow the update to run.
See this link for the Linux Lite wiki section on how to do this.

When using PPA software, it is important that the PPA has a release that is compatible with the OS.
See this link for Linux Lite wiki section on selecting and installing PPAs
https://wiki.linuxliteos.com/en/software.html#addppa
As you are on Linux Lite 7.2, ensure that any PPA you consider installing offers a version compatible with Ubuntu noble.
