problem installing packages via synaptic or mintinstall LMDE
Posted: Sun Jul 31, 2011 2:09 am
Hi all,
I've installed LMDE 32bits a week ago, and since then I've been having problems installing applications with mintinstall. Every single time I run mintinstall, it freezes after either I enter the password, or I choose an application to be installed/removed.
If I use synaptic or mintupdate, I have the same luck, but after some trials/reboot I'm able to install/remove or update packages. I know LMDE is a rolling release and that this kind of problems might happen; however, as such applications are so critical I've started considering that there might be some problem in my computer.
Does anyone knows what is going on?
Thanks in advance.

ps: If I install/remove/upgrade using apt I have non of these problems.
