** Description changed:

  QA-test install on
  - dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e6850, 5gb, amd/ati radeon rv516/x1300/x1550)
  
  Upgrade via re-install process.
  re-use sda6 as /  (no format)
  re-use sda7 as /home  (no format)
  
  Error I see:

  Background:
  
  This was a 18.04/bionic install; though I've tried to install Lubuntu
  focal daily on it twice (errors twice) so this could reveal extra detail
  as to what the issue is, or be a consequence of something else...
  Either way I'll look and hopefully learn more soon.
  
- Note:  if this issue is just the restoration of prior packages, it's NOT A CONCERN, as I may very well have had python2, Qt4 & other no deprecated software & the error message telling me all packages cQA-test install on
