Hello.

I installed from the distribution repository.

Do you manage packages with APT in command line interface or mintInstall or Synaptic

Steve




I use probably each, depending on what I want to achieve.

I use the system Update Manage to update packages, so that I can leave updating the kernel and web browsers until I have to (system or browser crash), Synaptic for finding and adding packages, and, I also sometimes use apt, depending on what I am wanting to achieve. I also use the MATE (I think it is) Software Manager to install packages, on occasion.

I have also used a GUI deb package installer, on occasion; downloading and installing additional packages.
Using Synaptic to look at my LO install in Kubuntu, I have only 19 packages marked as installed, no help packages and no l10n, so updates are quick.
