All that apt-get clean does is to remove the downloaded .deb files stored in /var/cache/apt/archives apt-get clean will not break your running system as it does not install or remove packages. The next time you use apt, it will download whatever packages it needs.
You can also manually force an install of a downloaded .deb that is in here (something like dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/some-package-and-version-number.deb) On Sun, Jan 15, 2012 at 4:30 PM, Kenny Mayne <snapbac...@yahoo.com> wrote: > OK, I suspect that apt cache is stuffed because my 24bit96 music files > some time give me trouble.
