Looks like `lsb_release -cs` returns a Mint codename for you.
Thankfully, since we know that Linux Mint 21 is based on Ubuntu 22.04
"Jammy Jellyfish", it should be possible to replace $(lsb_release -cs)
with jammy when running the command. Does the jammy-cran40/
subdirectory work for you?

Best regards,

Thanks! ?"jammy" made it work. ?

For some reason, ?lsb_release -cs is returning "victoria" rather than
"jammy",
and

$> sudo apt update
Hit:1 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease 
Ign:2 http://packages.linuxmint.com victoria InRelease 
Get:3 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates InRelease [119 kB]

A Mint problem?
