Hi Clive, > I thought that the upgrades would remove old files they were replacing?
Yes, when package ‘firefox’, say, gets upgraded then the new version of the package replaces the old one, and any files which were in the old one but no longer in the new one get removed. But the kernel packages are treated differently by some distros, including Ubuntu I think, because they're concerned your PC won't boot with the new kernel package so the old one is still required for switching too in GRUB's menu. > we are still driving to Switzerland twice a year but not sure for how > much longer. From what I hear about it elsewhere, it's nice enough up sticks and move if they'll let you. :-) -- Cheers, Ralph. -- Next meeting: Online, Jitsi, Tuesday, 2026-09-01 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... https://dorset.lug.org.uk New thread, don't hijack: mailto:[email protected]
