    strange adept problems afetr updating

    Hi all!
    I have updated to Kubuntu RC (with a lot of problems, of course, but I have done it), then I have done all updates, so my current system seems to be up to date. But...
    Every time I check for fresh packages, Adept wants to install new version! (Kubuntu 7.10)
    And If I try to do it, it is just loading some info from Net and just closes...
    What should I do?

    If you are confident that you have successfully upgraded to 7.10, then you can attempt to clean up the apt-get system as follows. Open a konsole and type:
    Code:
    sudo apt-get autoremove
    then:
    Code:
    sudo apt-get autoclean
    and then:
    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    Windows no longer obstructs my view.
    Using Kubuntu Linux since March 23, 2007.

        also having this issue from a clean install.
        Adept shows upgrade available. I go through the steps and in the end it errors telling me I am already at the latest version.

            I've just tried the aptget-autoremove line, Snowhog, and get this:
            Code:
            malcolm@hippy:~$ sudo apt-get autoremove
            [sudo] password for malcolm:

            What is xulrunner-1.9 please, and can i safely remove it?
