Reading package lists...

Aaah! Those PPAs! The love!
Not supprising the Linux Lite team tries to keep them to a minimum

Should be a pop-up asking to deactivate them when one fails. Temporary deactivation would be even better.
A special tool maybe?

Piggybacking a post... the lazy poster's way!

It's up to Ubuntu to sort out this messed up technology. I'm considering also doing away entirely with support for PPA and put it into Lite Software as an option, given that our target audience is Windows refugees they won't know what a PPA is. Linux folk can take 2 mins to add the extra software.

Don't know why... feels like this in my mind...
PPAs :

Very appropriate.

Enter the complete APT line for the Probable Problematic Application (PPA) you want to install.
