Hello Bogdan, This reply is off topic for the list, appologies. This problem is more r-sig-debian related (see below).
Though Berwin already mentionned a possible solution, here is another.

However, only the latest Long Term Support (LTS) release is fully supported." Note the *only the latest LTS* ;-) You'll also get the r-sig-debian list link to report issues. > Would you please advise, what shall I do next ? Thanks a lot ! If you have the time, upgrade your LTS by migrating your system from 14.04 to 16.04 and then 18.04 (Bionic Beaver). Best regards, -- BenoƮt
