Trisquel has replaced the Ubuntu name since software update
- Vous devez vous identifier ou créer un compte pour écrire des commentaires
Since my last software update of Ubuntu 16.04, the name Gnu/Trisquel has replaced Ubuntu at the top of the bootloader menu. Error reports now read "Sorry, Trisquel 6.0.1 has experienced an internal error."
Trisquel GNU/Linux is not an official version of Ubuntu. Why did this happen? What should I do about it? Can someone forward my questions to the maintainers of Trisquel?

If you were running Ubuntu 16.04 and added the Trisquel repositories, this is entirely expected. As an unofficial version of Ubuntu, with an explicit goal to avoid endorsing the differing values of that project, Trisquel is both legally and morally required to remove references to the OS from *all packages*- which means that, when you 'update'- replace packages with their most current Trisquel equivalents- every reference to Ubuntu is replaced.
Of course, I'm presuming that's what happened in the first place. If I've misinterpreted, please do say.

I completely agree, this issue should be reported to the bug tracker.
First of all, oof, that's a lot of non-free software repositories.
Second, you added the Free Software Foundation's mirror of the Trisquel toutatis repositories to your /etc/apt/sources.list file. So, like Soon.to.be.Free said, your computer will try to replace packages with a package from the Trisquel toutatis repositories. This will probably also create a lot of conflicts since Trisquel toutatis is the equivalent of Ubuntu 12.04.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think opening up a terminal and typing sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list then your password, then removing the entry "http://mirror.fsf.org/trisquel toutatis-updates" and after that typing sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade in the terminal window would solve your problems. Be careful when adding repositories in the future, as you can see this can really mess up your system.
One more thing, I highly recommend getting rid of the Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi, Windscribe, Bitmask and Skype repositories, these are all non-free and most of them are probably spyware, too.
The command sudo nano etcapt/sources.list results in an error message: Directory 'etcapt' does not exist

It is /etc/apt/sources.list and you can use any text editor (here GEdit):
$ gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
Or you can use the "Software & Updates" utility in the "System Settings".
But you had better backup your files and do a clean install of Trisquel 7. Without adding any proprietary software. And please stop doing advertisement (your signature) for both proprietary JavaScript and SaaS. It is against our community guidelines: https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/trisquel-community-guidelines
>you can use any text editor (here GEdit)
You're right, it's been such a long time since I used Ubuntu and I knew nano is installed for sure. But using GEdit is a better suggestion in this case.

The "Software & Updates" utility in the "System Settings" isn't working.
Apologies I can't remove the signature.

Again: you had better backup your files and do a clean install of Trisquel 7; without adding any proprietary software.
And I see no reason why you would not be able to remove your signature. Unless you are paid to do advertisement for proprietary software here, in which case you are not welcome.

Listed, you should definitely do this.
>And I see no reason why you would not be able to remove your signature. Unless >you are paid to do advertisement for proprietary software here, in which case >you are not welcome.
The thing in his signature is probably added by the proprietary email client he is using to post here.
