First, it should be pointed out that this list is for discussions about
*development* of *Ubuntu*. Since you have Mint, it's really not
applicable.

It's also really not a list to report or discuss bugs in non-development
versions of Ubuntu. There are resources for this in Ubuntu, but they are
different in Mint:
https://linuxmint-troubleshooting-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/where.html

Finally, as it relates to Ubuntu, the issue is fixed in version 1.9:
https://github.com/jarun/ddgr/issues/115
That's available in Ubuntu Groovy.

It looks like, at least, it affects the version in Focal and perhaps in
the version in Bionic since the problem is a change in DuckDuckGo's API.
That said, it may suggest a Stable Release Update since at first glance
it seems like a small patch.
