LMDE 5 “Elsie” released!

Linux Mint Debian Edition version 5 has just been released. As I mentioned in my last post, I have switched my laptop to the beta version of LMDE 5.

If you are using LMDE 5 BETA, you don’t need to upgrade. Run the following commands:

apt install network-manager-config-connectivity-debian plymouth-label pipewire plocate
apt remove mlocate brltty
sudo updated

That will update you to the final release.
