Software updates fail
#14
Hey there, bigskill. I'm going to jump in and help you a bit. I think you're having some trouble understanding and following what the guys are saying and doing. It can definitely be confusing if you're new to it.

The last message trinidad gave was that the package that is giving you problems is broken in some way. That's not saying you broke it or that it's only a problem you are having. It seems that it is broken at the Ubuntu level and all derivatives are seeing the same problem. A derivative is any Linux distribution that is based in some way on Ubuntu, so Linux Mint, Xubuntu, Linux Lite, etc, etc are all having the problem. He offered a possible solution of disabling pre-release and running update again.

At that point I'm going to stop and let one of the more experienced team members offer the steps to do that. Hopefully my explanation helped you understand. I can tell you that you don't really have a serious problem at this point. Relax and take a nice, deep breath. Your installation of LL is fine.  8)
