When I click on 'Install Updates' in the Menu I get the following error message: 'couldn't fetch the package cache information lists'
Is there a way of fixing this?
When the above happens (which is always at the moment) I use the terminal instead and type:
Code: sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Is that sufficient, or do I need to have the command 'install' somewhere in that code?
Thanks for your help
Mike

Yes thanks LL-user, I've seen the link at the top of the page but I don't have google chrome as a browser - I use firefox.

The above was done, PC rebooted, but I still get the same message 'couldn't fetch the package cache information lists'
when I click on 'Install Updates' in Menu.

Even if you don't use or have Chrome...
Have you run the commands:
Code: sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list"
sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/opt/google/chrome/cron/google-chrome"
((The 2nd command will error if you don't have Chrome, ignore))

@Wirezfree...
After doing the quoted bit you suggested above, I rebooted, clicked on 'install updates' and didn't get the Error Message -
instead I got the more normal 'No Updates Available' with the green tick , suggesting the alternative updating method
that I'd used (i.e. command line using terminal) had done its job. Thanks very much Dave.

I've checked but no new llupdates.log file has been created. Presumably this is because
LL is already up to date, as mentioned immediately above to wirezfree. However,
I will check the llupdates.log the next time it updates using GUI.
Thanks guys - the above was really helpful.
Cheers
Mike
