The repositories list from your machine miss updates: disco-security
and disco-updates
.
You have to open Software & Updates (software-properties-gtk
), switch to Updates tab to enable them.
Then install all upgrades and GIMP with Ardour:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install gimp arduor
