Hi darko, Thanks for your help again!
I do believe I don't need this anyway as you say. Yep I'm running low on HDD space atm and have used the repair broken packages in boot mode. I will have more space when I defrag the drive which has windows on it so I can safely erase Windows and then use Gparted or similar to rearrange things. Last time I went to do this, Windows played up and I got some message saying it was a non registered version?? Was never like that before so will have to look into that. I haven't used windows since my first run of the previous version of Ubuntu. I guess the best is to go offline to start windows,then see if I can defrag maybe even in safe-mode? Windows is so foreign to me now LOL yet I knew it inside out once. Any simple command to remove the offending library? I've searched and cannot understand the lingo, a bit deep for me. I have sudo'd all commands and the 'apt-get-update' many times with reboot without success. Thanks again mate for the support.
