Probably done something stupid, but if so, I don't know what!!
Get this message when told to go to Synaptic, and check packages, but this as far as I can get.
Tried sudo apt-get update, but get similar type message.
Help please?

Re: Broken Software
You can remove the mergelists and create them anew. See the two commands for that I share here: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.p ... 23#p638950. I'm not sure why this happens, but is happens for some users--Linux Mint 15 will have an improved software sources program, in which you will have a button to fix these kind of issues automatically.
