Re: Ubuntu 22.04 upgrade problems

Dave,

Thanks so much for the reply. We got it working following suggestions here:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1414609/run-pgadmin-4-on-ubuntu-22-04
Although I suspect the root of the issue in our case was with apt, not with
a pgAdmin/Ubuntu-22.04 incompatibility.

Best regards,
Rich
