I originally installed Lubuntu as a test system, and I kept updating it 
to the latest version.  I'm not sure which level I started with.

When I upgraded to Lubuntu 20.04 (in a terminal session, using "sudo 
do-release-upgrade -d"), things seemed to be working well, and I was 
able to install my Eclipse Java development environment, and things were 
working well.

My Ubuntu 20.04 upgrade (which I was thinking of switching to), didn't 
end up with a working Eclipse development environment.

Using the LXDE desktop on Lubuntu 20.04, I was able to even use my 
strange color scheme, which I like a lot, and things were working in 
Eclipse.

So I restored my production files from 16.04 to the 20.04 system, and 
started working with that.

That process proceeded without many problems, so I 'transferred my flag' 
to the new system.

I'm just now cleaning up the last few 'rough edges'.

The thing I like most about the new system, is that Rosegarden now loads 
channel recording filters (which it didn't on 16.04, and LibreOffice 
Writer, once again allows you to produce HTML files where graphics 
images are linked-to in the HTML file, rather than forcing you to embed 
them as data within the HTML file.

I've been using an old copy of openSUSE Linux for editing HTML 
web-pages, because of the need to keep the graphics images separate.  
But now, I can use my production system to do it once again.
