Hi, thanks for all the assistance so far! I’m afraid although I’ve been using Linux since 2006 I’ve never really learned much about this stuff. Linux these days is just too user friendly! (More so than Windows IMO which I find to be a pain in the rear).
I’ve managed to reinstall almost all the packages that were removed, but when I get to libnepomukutil4 I’m geting the following:
[quote]I can’t install libmuonprivate2 libnepomuk4 libnepomukquery4a
libnepomukutils4 because of broken depency;

See the above you don’t need libnepomuk anymore.

Not sure where this line comes from at least it is completely wrong and the correct one is already in the official-repo list.
Just remove this line.
Yes, leszek is right about that repository not existing.
For Netrunner 14 LTS (Trusty Tahr) the PPA repository link would actually be:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/netrunner-os/frontier-14-packages/ubuntu trusty main #id:netrunner_main
I wonder if paviluf is correct in his assertion that one of the updates is causing this issue, depending on which version of Netrunner the user started out with. This issue has also been noted in prior posts within the Netrunner 14 forum as well as in the older archived Netrunner Standard forums, so one has to assume that this is an ongoing problem.
I personally believe that this issue is also being caused by the following upgrade method being used, instead of just doing a re-install between releases or using the official update scripts, the user tried to use the old change repositories and run dist-upgrade method.
Using those commands given in that post you linked to would essentially be doing the same thing as what I describe in the last paragraph of my post. So maybe, just maybe, the issue is in the netrunner-apt-config package then.
The package is not broken. It is basically speaking mintsources that somehow produces that problem and was removed for that reason from 14.1. On upgrading it isn’t removed though.
