Hi Bill,
it looks like you have installed QGIS from the Ubuntu repository (which 
offers QGIS 3.22.4) instead of the qgis.org repositories (which 
currently offer QGIS 3.28.11 LTR and QGIS 3.32.3).

If you want to install QGIS 3.28 LTR on you GNU/Linux Ubuntu/Debian 
based distribution, you need to correctly uninstall QGIS 3.22 and to 
follow the detailed instructions available at 
https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html#debian-ubuntu and 
pay attention to use the repository URI https://qgis.org/debian-ltr and 
to use the correct Ubuntu distribution codename (which should be 
"jammy"): a note in the detailed instructions explains how.

Best regards.
