Might have time to test out on VM later to see if same thing happens again. Will let you know when confirm.Two that I know caused problems were:deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable maindeb http://dl.google.com/linux/talkplugin/deb/ stable mainI think there were one or two more -- Wine and/or Skype might have been one of them, but can't remember.Was never a problem to me, because I don't use those things and just deleted the repos. But when installing for someone else who I thought might like to use them, I had to fix the problem. Was a simple fix -- just changed wording at end from either "stable" to "trusty", or vice versa. Don't recall which was correct. Same basic fix was needed for Skype if I remember right.
Which ones?
I really do not see an advantage for going to Linux Lite as Linux Mint does all these stuffs in a much simpler and established manner.What drove you to make a distro when Linux Mint is the best Ubuntu Derivative

One thing I've run into on LL installations is that a few of the included repositories (needed for installing some of the "additional" programs) seem to be pointed to incorrect address, which causes error message and failure of install attempt. Is that the problem you ran into? (That repo problem also causes error messages when refreshing Synaptic. Is that the issue you had with Synaptic too?)
Why the synaptic package manager is not functioning in the same manner with Mint or Ubuntu
Installation with 3rd party codecs and multimedia support takes hell a lot of time. This was not the case with Ubuntu or Linux Mint.
Additional Application Installation is not a bit easy. Though the promise is so, I am finding that the Additional Software Installation does not work seamlessly.
