Thanks, Jerry!

I took a look into /etc/apt/sources.list

It looks like this:

Code:

# deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy main restricted
...
deb http://mirrors.nxthost.com/ubuntu/ jammy restricted main
...

This is what was available through the Synaptic frontend.
The only way we can change the servers is either edit /etc/apt/sources.list via (I'd rather do this...)

Code:

sudo pluma /etc/apt/sources.list

We can use any editor, like mousepad, gedit, geany, etc., I use Pluma, OR via

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy universe multiverse"

That's ugly, you have to issue lots of CLI commands for all the lines in /etc/apt/sources.list
Now, weighing the amount of work required, I guess my approach (manual update) was better.
Unfortunately, it's a very subjective approach, since that's up to one's computing skills, I know that.
Afterall, "easy" depends on what you know and how many times you did what you know.

Weird, again!

I followed your link for Thunderbird Repo (http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool...underbird/)
I found the 102.3.0 .deb version.
Now, I wonder what's happening, because I found the same package in this place:
http://mirrors.nxthost.com/ubuntu/pool/m...underbird/
Package data is:
thunderbird-dbg_102.3.0+build1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb 377.0 MiB 2022-Sep-16 12:29
It looks very much the same as in your Repo! (My server provides a debug version, that's why it's larger...)
thunderbird_102.3.0+build1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb 2022-09-17 00:29 59M

Why is the update held then?!

Best regards!
