Hi all

(please Cc)

is there a way to update hopelessly broken packages in Ubuntu Focal LTS?

(packages in question are onedrive and in particular calibre - I refrain
from commenting on the reasons behind calibre)

Ubuntu seems to pull at arbitrary intervals rather incomplete packages
that end up in LTS releases, and upstream gets flooded with bug reports.

Yes, Ubuntu has a Stable Release Update process[1], but this is probably better discussed on an Ubuntu mailing list, rather than Debian.
