Yes, still greyed-out

Hi,
am running LMDE updated to pack 3 w-out any problem. Just discovered I'm not able to use synaptic. It opens, but the apply updated button is greyed out.
is there any reason for this ??

Dar.es.Salaam for the latest iso do U mean the 201109 ?? if affirmative you sistem is pointing to the LATEST repository see attachment does your sources.list look like this ??: deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian main upstream import deb http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest testing main contrib ...

dodgefan, your sources.list is the default one in the 201109 iso (if a'm not wrong) sure that updates install and your update manager should now be like the one below. problems will arise when update pack 3 is released since to my understanding pkgs in multimedia e security cud be incompatible with ...

Hi, my LMDE was installed since its first release last september 2010 so I do not see any need to install the new 201109 iso. still have repos pointing to LATEST but did not make any update since I saw first warnings for update pack 2 vs update pack 3 so am in stdy -by awaiting for the outcoming of ...

Hi,
I understood that the sources.list need to be changed AFTER the release of the update pack 3 and only then
update the system. am I wrong ???

Gene,

Hi, I'am an happy (and may be a lucky ) user of LMDE 32bit since its first release on september last year. my repos tracking to Linux Mint Latest. always updated without problems. bugs fixed surfing the forum. just to try it have also installed last week the new rc of Mint xfce and all went smooth. ...

Hi,
am running LMDE 32bit

Hi, don't know if this wl help U, a'm running LMDE 32bits with plenty of satisfaction and have Skype installed. no problems. this is my sources.list: deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian main upstream import deb http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest testing main contrib non-free deb-src http://deb...

secipolla, I agree it's not advisable to use Ubuntu PPA on debian.. or like the ones who use Ubuntu Tweak. as far as Minitube is concerned have installed it last september when LMDE was first released and never had problems using it. p.s. also never did a reinstall of LMDE (may be am a lucky man)......

Hi everyone, Minitube is already available in Debian repository, only for Wheezy and Sid but due to You Tube API updates, this does not work with versions prior to 1.5.0 To avoid this problem it would be better to keep constantly updated the application, unless we enable the Testing or Sid repositor...

Hi everyone,
many thanks for your help.
since I picked latest, am seeking some stability. Will follow zerozero suggestion and wait till debian-multimedia is also mirrored in the update-packs.
thank U again.

Hi
I found this:
http://help.lockergnome.com/linux/Bug-6 ... 31925.html
but do not understand what to do.

Have now disinstalled mplayer...using VLC
txs

Vincent & Rocken, did not solve the problem.
screen shot 1 tells me that mplayer has been kept to the actual version and not upgraded
screen shot 2 and 3 tell that there R damaged packages, but cannot repair.
