Upgrade Problems

I'm trying to update MediaCenter 26 to MediaCenter 30 on Linux Mint 19.3.

I downloaded Mediacenter-30.0.93-amd64.deb from the link in this forum section. When I double click on this file, I get an error message:  "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable:libc6(>=2.28). I tried to update libc6 as follows:

roger@theaternuc:~$ sudo apt install libc-bin
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
libc-bin is already the newest version (2.27-3ubuntu1.6).
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libllvm9 linux-image-5.3.0-53-generic linux-modules-5.3.0-53-generic
  linux-modules-extra-5.3.0-53-generic
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

I'm stuck. It seems to be saying that I'm already at the highest version which is less than the requirement for the package.  Linux is mostly a mystery to me, and I don't know to do. I apologize if this is a duplicate message. I thought I posted this once already, but couldn't find it when anywhere after I was done. I have a hard time using this forum.

Thanks for any help

Did you find this?

Thanks for your quick reply.  I did see this before posting, but there were lots of things in the description that I didn't understand and some things that were concerning to me because of my lack of knowledge about linux ... Things like accessing things from Git and private repositories.  I can certainly use this mechanism, but didn't want to run something that I didn't understand. Is it safe to use ?  I'm still wondering why I got the error message in the first place. Am I trying to install the GA release of the MC ?

Linux Mint 19.3 is probably too old to install MC30 or MC31 as it can't satisfy the libc6 dependency. You may need to upgrade Linux Mint to a newer version, e.g. Linux Mint 21.1, in order to install and use MC31.

Yikes.  That would have been nice to know before I paid the upgrade fee.  I ran a quick test and got the same dependency message on every package Newer than the one that I currently have installed.  Looks like I'm dead ended where I'm at. The older version still works and I guess I'll just stick with it.  I'll have to check about getting a refund.
