Failure to install Updates - coreyman - 03-04-2016
Hello Linux Lite Community:
In the past few days, whenever I try to install updates, about halfway through the process it freezes and a window appears with a red "X" stating, "Couldn't fetch the package cache information lists".
Attached is the system report I performed after several update attempts.

Please take a look at this post:

The update check for Google Chrome is stopping updates.
Depending on if you are using 32bit or 64bit
Use the relevant command.

I did actually install Chromium instead of Chrome.
I typed in the commands anyway and I came up with messages saying that no such files were present.
The updates still fail.

I tried installing updates this morning and it appears to be working for now.

this seems to be a recurring problem for me too on three laptops that have Linux Lite in our household - been like that now for about a week now...

I assume you've followed the link Wirezfree provided and did the necessary steps outlined there?

The fix is necessary even if you don't have Google Chrome installed!
What is the output if you run the following in a terminal:
Code:
sudo apt-get updateIs it the same for all three laptops?
