Tried to do an update of my system and received this error. No idea what it means

E: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-3.13.0-77-lowlatency_3.13.0-77.121+7.0trisquel2_amd64.deb: subprocess dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile returned error exit status 2

Any help would be much appreciated.

Also **sudo synaptic** and then remove all the packages in "status" - "residual config".
Take a look at the logs in /var/logs if you find any huge files there taking your preciousss space and also remove all the old kernels.

Best to use gksudo with graphical apps, categorically. So

gksudo synaptic

The default launcher actually calls 'synaptic-pkexec'.

That's correct Magique B.

Just wanted to confirm that on all distros I used (did a lot of hopping a year or something more ago), I opened always **all* the graphical applications with plain sudo without any issue whatsoever. In fact I still do that and see no reason to change the habit.

You're welcome to. But it might not be a great idea to tell newcomers to do alike. They might not like it when their computer becomes unusable. And they probably would blame Trisquel or even GNU/Linux for it.
