Hello Mark and others.

Yes, I did. In 22.04, I do not get it installed, because of "broken 
dependencies". The package libnotify-bin is apparently missing.

However, I did discover something else after senseeding my previous 
message.

When launching Dolphin, and RIGHT-clickling, I see three possible 
actions via "Back in Time" - amongst which "backup within the last 
snapshot". However, I need the so-called "context menu" within Dolphin 
in order to trigger such an action, define the place for storing the 
backup, etc. But even after launching Dolphin, I do not see anywhere the 
"context menu" that I need to launch "Back in Time". On the other hand, 
when going to DOLPHIN > Settings > Configure Dolphin, I do see an option 
to configure the "context menu". The three possible actions of "Back in 
Time" are already being mentioned at the list of actions to be shown at 
that "context menu". So, somewhere inside Dolphin, that "context menu" 
with  "Back in Time" must be available. However, I cannot find it 
anywhere so far.

So, my question is now..... How can I find that "context menu" inside 
Dolphin?

Yours,

Bas.
