problems with superuser
Hi, I'm having a few problems trying to update my copy of 6.1.
Had a look through several threads on "updates" and "superuser" and have not got too far. (Still new at linux)
Anyway, below is what I've gone through so far.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers, Hermann
Could not upgrade the system!
Fix broken packages first.
Software index is broken
It is impossible to install or remove any software. Please use the package manager "Synaptic" or run "sudo apt-get install -f" in a terminal to fix this issue at first.
