    Hi there Snowhog,

    Yes, just changed to my local server and tried installing Kubuntu-desktop but Synaptic will not move unless those dependencies/broken packages are fixed.

    On a side note , download speed has increased.

      Have you installed gpgv yet?

          Yes, gpgv is installed :

          Code:
          reel@BM2LTSR66RBin:/media/hd/home/reel$ sudo apt install gpgv
          [sudo] password for reel: 
          Reading package lists... Done

          Reading state information... Done
          gpgv is already the newest version.

            Seems that gpgv is already installed and the latest version.

            Tried the sudo apt-get update and the same gpg errors.
            IF gpgv is installed but apt reports it can't be executed, indicates a deeper problem with your system.

                Thanks Snowhog, just read that and i have tried all three and same dependancy errors.

                This is looking gloomy for BM2LTS . At the moment i`m using Gnome ( compiz ) which is the nearest i can get to a kde desktop.

                I miss the clipboard and the whole ease of use of kde.

                Placed some icons along the top and bottom taskbars but now want to get rid of some - how is this done ?

                I miss kde , damn.....

                Thanks for all this help though , still can`t mount those drives on boot up but at least have the commands for manual mounting by Oshunluvr .

                  Found , maybe the dependancy error :

                  Code:
                  Dependancy is not satisfiable: python3-software-properties (=0.92.36)
                  Do i install this with a simple `sudo apt-get install python3-software-properties`.

                  Update : Terminal is saying that it`s the latest version, i`m out of ideas .

                    Do you have any non-standard repositories in use? What do you have in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/

                      @Snowhog: It is not a proper Ubuntu system.

                      @kdeuser: Can you display the sources list of the ppa's that it connects to?

                        kdeuser, did you check for the presence of polkit-kde-1 ?

                          Hi NickStone,

                          The only thing showing any sources because there are no ppa`s installed is printed below :

                          Code:
                          ## N.B. software from this repository is ENTIRELY UNSUPPORTED by the Ubuntu
                          ## team. Also, please note that software in universe WILL NOT receive any
                          ## review or updates from the Ubuntu security team.
                          # deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty universe
                          # deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates universe
                          deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main universe restricted multiverse
                          deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security universe restricted multiverse main
                          deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-updates universe restricted multiverse main
                          The above comes from `sources.list.save`

                            Hi anika200, just typed ` polkit-kde-1` in Synaptic and yes it`s there but not installed.

                            Should this be installed , is this the missing piece in the jigsaw ?

                            Update : Went ahead and installed the app , went through ok.

                            I`ll try running kubuntu-desktop

                            Update : No luck - again....
