I don't know why you would really want to remove the list every week anyway. the update command is designed to take care of that. * Thank You for the question. I did install Xubuntu. Fine. One month later "update" and package manager and softwaremanager were destroyed. So I could find in the www: "rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf sudo apt-get clean sudo apt-get update" Now update and package and softwaremanager are ok. I do not know why, but I did it. I think or I suggest, something is bringing dirt on my Linux. Then I was adding fix-missing because sometimes the update is not running well. I am using Xubuntu xfce and up I could see a red warning. rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf did clean the warning. > ((Should I delete old emails and only > send the new question for saving space)) You should remove unnecessary information from your posts. But you should not delete everything, as that makes it very difficult for someone to know what you are talking about or responding too. Also, this is a bottom posting group, meaning you should always put your replies under the previous email like I have been doing here. Thanks! * Is it ok, I am writing between Your words? * http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LINUX_Newbies Is this the link for reading the emails online? * Is it right:It is better to use the terminal then to use the GUI?
