How to update gnome-software to newest version for 16.04 or newer?
Hi all,
I'm on Peach OSI (xubuntu 16.04 LTS 64bit) with a locked kernel 4.4.0-187-generic, meaning I only get updates that passes the creators criteria.
I have had some problems with Software(gnome-software) and contacted the developers, who told me I'm using a very old version of the gnome-software, 3.20.5 and that these problems were solved in the newer versions - this is where the main problem start: 3.20.5 seem to be the only version available when I run apt-cache policy gnome-software from terminal.
I know there is a newer version in the universe repository but I don't get it offered when I get updates.
So how can I update to the newer version and will it work with my 16.04 64bit?
Updating to newer Peach OSI is not an option.
Thank you in advance
Jan
