It just occurred to me that the problem may have been that PCLOS seems to have had one of their repository sources down over the weekend. I tried to update over the weekend and one of them was out of commission.
Looks like its working now. I recommend "reloading" Synaptic and marking "all upgrades" and clicking on "apply" and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't , the "I go nuthin". I run PCLOS on 3 machines and have not had this problem.
