I did a completely fresh install to the test machine - including a full 
install of the MATE desktop.

I attempted to install gparted using Synaptic.
The message received was:

"Please insert the disk labeled:
Debian GNU/Linux10.0.0_Buster_-Official amd64 DVD
Binary-120190706-10:24
in drive /media/cdrom/"

What is the solution?
