[Ubuntu] Release file missing from Stable repository

[Luí­s Moreira de Sousa]

Hi Bas and Angelos,

I managed to install GRASS 7.8 from the Universe repositories, but QGis fails with unmet dependencies. In my experience, adding the QGis PPA messes up things with other GIS software. So there isn't much alternative to UbuntuGIS.

I am reluctant to get involved in yet another project but this PPA is vital to me. Is there a starting point somewhere? I would like to at least understand whether I could contribute efficiently.

Thank you and regards.
