Thanks so much for the advice. As mentioned, trying to install from the deb files gives me a dependency error. So I tried compiling as you suggested (and thanks for the link to the useful explanations). Unfortunately this too gives me trouble. In particular, trying to install the dependencies stumbles. Here are the messages:

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree... Done

Reading state information... Done

Note, selecting 'qt6-svg-dev' instead of 'libqt6svg6-dev'

Note, selecting 'libsndfile1-dev' instead of 'libsndfile-dev'

Note, selecting 'zlib1g-dev' instead of 'libz-dev'

Note, selecting 'libsamplerate0-dev' instead of 'libsamplerate-dev'

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

libjack-jackd2-dev : Depends: libjack-jackd2-0 (= 1.9.21~dfsg-3ubuntu3) but it is not installable Conflicts: libjack-dev

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I'm too much of a novice to know how to proceed, so in the meanwhile must continue with the AppImage despite its shortcomings with regard to plugins. At least it works in general.

But at least I'm learning more while struggling with this and really do appreciate everyone's helpful advice.
