My first question is that with OpenSSL message should i do something about that? My second question should i wait with the libreoffice packages because they are being held back?

For the first part of your question, see the exact same question here (which means you can effectively leave it out, and focus only on the held back packages). — Artur Meinild, Aug 03 '23 at 11:06
For ufw, it's currently in "phased updates". I don't know why LibreOffice is held back. — Artur Meinild, Aug 03 '23 at 11:08
@ArturMeinild phased out does it mean i should some days before i take any action i tried sudo apt full-upgrade but that didn't work? — Jonte YH, Aug 03 '23 at 11:10
Yes it's described in the phased updates post I linked to. It will install eventually (after a number of days). — Artur Meinild, Aug 03 '23 at 11:11
@ArturMeinild Thanks :)! Is the same with the Open SSL error message? — Jonte YH, Aug 03 '23 at 11:13
