Hello everybody.
I installed Trisquel Mini 7.0 32-bit to a week, and I'm having a problem updating.
I am unable to update the Trisquel.
When I click on Software Updater starts to check the packages and the screen appears with the seguitnes selected packages to download.
-Security updates
-Other updates
-Trisquel base
With a total of 65 MB.
But when I click Install Now, the screen closes and does not update the system.
someone could give me a hand.
Thank you.
Open up the command line.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Hello lcom23,
I had the same problem after upgrading my installation from 6.0 to 7.0. It appeared to be a problem with the rights that did'nt allow to really upgrade (make the installation). I had to go, in the main menu, to (sorry if the titles of the elements are not goo as I Translate it from french) "Preferences" -> "Desktop session settings" and to check the "PolicyKit Authentication Agent" line.
I hope that it helps.
Hello Kromas. I went with the commands you indicated the system updated.
But when you open the Update Manager packages still appear enabled to update with total of 65 MB in size.
Did you see any indications of packages being held back? If so you can try a dist-upgrade. Let me know if this helps.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Here are the differences with the upgrades:
upgrade
upgrade is used to install the newest versions of all packages
currently installed on the system from the sources enumerated in
/etc/apt/sources.list. Packages currently installed with new
versions available are retrieved and upgraded; under no
circumstances are currently installed packages removed, or packages
not already installed retrieved and installed. New versions of
currently installed packages that cannot be upgraded without
changing the install status of another package will be left at
their current version. An update must be performed first so that
apt-get knows that new versions of packages are available.
dist-upgrade
dist-upgrade in addition to performing the function of upgrade,
also intelligently handles changing dependencies with new versions
of packages; apt-get has a "smart" conflict resolution system, and
it will attempt to upgrade the most important packages at the
expense of less important ones if necessary. So, dist-upgrade
command may remove some packages. The /etc/apt/sources.list file
contains a list of locations from which to retrieve desired package
files. See also apt_preferences(5) for a mechanism for overriding
the general settings for individual packages.
Hello Julius22.
In sessions settings do not have that option.
Hello Kromaz.
I went with the commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
This time all the packages have been updated and were downloaded packages of 65 MB that were missing.
And when entering Update Manager, the system said that this time everything is updated.
Thank you very much for the help of all of you here the Trisquel Forum.
As now everything is okay with the Update Manager
Going forward I always use the commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
or
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
