Hi all!

This is my first post on this forum...
I've successfully upgraded LMDE to UP5 via Synaptic, but now mintUpdate still thinks I'm running UP4.

How can I make mintUpdate recognize UP5?

My software sources are:

Code: Select all

hi

welcome to the forums
if i was you i wouldn't worry to much about it

the sources.list are fine, if you have the status saying that your system is up to date then good

the question here is that MU retrieves the info displayed in the update pack info button from the main server and i also see looong delays to display the info and sometimes timeout.

Thank you for your quick reply zerozero.

My system is completely up to date.
There are indeed long delays in displaying the info; is that the reason why it gives the wrong data?
