I think it's quite clear. First, I used update manager when the problem occurred. Thinking that there might be something wrong with the update manager package (GUI), I tried the CLI sudo apt-get install update. That failed as well and gave the message that "update" did not exist. After issuing the commands suggest by arochester, the problem of "update" not existing disappeared. However, there was an error message saying that packages were being withheld. I tried the update manager again to see if the command given by arochester fixed update manager. it did not.
It seems that someone may have repackaged the udpates, or did something to that effect. The updates installed on April 6. What I'm concerned about is that the udpates disabled the update manager and erased the sudo apt-get install "update" and "upgrade" and probably all other commands associated with sudo apt-get install. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/752201 Title: apr 05/11 update renders updates inoperable -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
