    [SOLVED] QApt worker.

    Hi,

    Just trying to use Muon Update for a whole bunch of upgrades this am when Moun crashed. So retried and got the following:

    It appears that QApt worker has either crashed or disappeared. Please report a bug .........

    I tried a system restart but no change so what do I do to rectify this little 'bug'?

    Thanks

    Have you tried upgrading in the terminal?

    Try

    sudp apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

    and see if that works.

      Well it looked promising - and then . . .

      Got this error on retrying Muon:

      The package system could not be initialised, your configuration may be broken.

        If muon is broken try purging it and re-installing. You don't need muon to update, it's just a nice GUI.

          I've lost my 'Linux' hand-book (decorating) have I got this right if so you can see the result?

          pollypig@pollypig:~$ sudo apt-get purge muon
          Reading package lists... Error!
          E: Read error - read (14: Bad address)

            Hmm, try these commands:

            sudo mv /var/lib/apt/lists /var/lib/apt/lists_old
            sudo apt-get update

            Then try the purge again

              Well your last worked although after the 'purge' Moun was still there so no need to reinstall - or does 'purge' do other than 'remove'? Having said that I did do 'sudo apt-get -f install' when prompted below.

              Some output below maybe of interest (or maybe not )

              Thanks once again.

              You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:

                You should be OK to remove the old lists now. I suggested move (mv) in case we had to recover.

                sudo rm -rfv /var/lib/apt/lists_old

                    remove uninstalls packages but leaves configuration files behind. purge uninstalls packages and deletes configuration files. Generally, purge is preferred because it keeps your system cleaner.
