I'm a n00b, but it appears I can't do much until I fix this issue about Jammy not having a release file.
Help!
And thanks.

In the configuration file for of the package management system on your computer there is a reference to the PPA ppa:pmjdebruijn/darktable-release
This PPA does not contain any software for the Ubuntu release that you are running (jammy), see https://launchpad.net/~pmjdebruijn/+archive/ubuntu/darktable-release

You have to remove the reference to that PPA form your package management configuration.

What output do you receive for the command
grep darktable-release /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list
?

If you get an output with a filename that is somewhat similar to
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/pmjdebruijn_darktable-release_jammy.list
then delete the file with the name that you got.

The PPA doesn't support your release of Ubuntu and should be removed

After the removal of the PPA.

Install Darktable Snap on your Ubuntu 22.04

You can still install updates and so on with the error it's not system breaking. Just remember that the first P in PPA stands for "personal". It is a package repo for the owner(s) and their needs. The fact that they are available to anyone else is a bonus. The compile options and functionality cannot be guaranteed

Can you help with this problem?
