Public bug reported:
This is more of an issue rather than a bug, In the process of managing
packages on adept, I selected to install a package involving debian (I
can't remember which exactly) that unintentionally uninstalled all other
packages, all 2000 of them. I didn't mean to do that but my aim was to
recover other lost debian packages like my system settings
(kcm_displayconfig.la, kcm_colors.la, etc) that I had lost previously.
The loss of those packages was causing issues with my internet
connection and I was unable to use many settings because I had no .la
library files. I have very little knowledge about dealing with ubuntu
(I wiped it off my computer for example). Kubuntu is something a friend
of mine installed for me while leaving my windows driver alone. He
installed it on a seperate driver. So I want to know if there is a way
to recover linux ( I still have the option to boot into a different
version of ubuntu, but it stalls at a process saying waiting for root.)
or shall I reinstall the whole thing from some cds? Also, if I have to
reinstall linux from cd myself, where can I get the files? Can I burn
these cds on my regular cd burn drive (I can get the files online from
my windows connection) Or do I need a dvd burn drive? Please and
thanks for the response.
