    A Linux Mint release is always based on a specific Ubuntu version. When you add the MongoDB repositories, you must make sure to reference the correct Ubuntu version. The corresponding variant of Ubuntu is specified in /etc/os-release.

    Here is an example for installing MongoDB-6 in Mint

    curl -sS https://pgp.mongodb.com/server-6.0.asc | sudo gpg --dearmor --output /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/mongodb-org-6.0-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [arch=amd64,arm64] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu $(. /etc/os-release; echo "$UBUNTU_CODENAME")/mongodb-org/6.0 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-6.0.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mongodb-org
