** Package changed: ubuntu => ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu)

** Description changed:

  I recently did a release-upgrade from LUbuntu 20.04 to 22.04.   After doing that the firefox snap did not work:
  ```
  monra at charon:~$ snap list | grep firefox
  firefox            134.0.2-1        5647   latest/stable  mozilla**    -
  amonra at charon:~$ /snap/bin/firefox
  /user.slice/user-1000.slice/session-55.scope is not a snap cgroup
  amonra at charon:~$
  ```
  I am lead to understand that this happens because the environment variable DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is incorrectly set, in this case to: unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-rbtaLBnkFl,guid=99129c89faa6343862bdf11b679912be
  
- I am led to believe that as I bypass I can add this to my .bashrc file:
+ I am led to believe that I can add this to my .bashrc file:
