After yesterday's update (which included the kernel), Lite Tweaks no longer works and refuses to keep logs, so it's not possible to tell what has gone wrong.
-
Have you run it from the command line? Working here with full updates.

Using Synaptic I was able to do some stuff, but not all. Got this error when I tried
sudo apt-get autoremove:
apt-get: symbol lookup error: apt-get: undefined symbol: _Z15InstallPackagesR9CacheFilebbbRKNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEERK11CommandLine, version APTPRIVATE_0.0
And this when I tried
sudo apt-get clean
pt-get: symbol lookup error: apt-get: undefined symbol: _Z15InstallPackagesR9CacheFilebbbRKNSt7__cxx1112basic_stringIcSt11char_traitsIcESaIcEEERK11CommandLine, version APTPRIVATE_0.0
-
Could you please run Lite Tweaks from the cli and provide any output.

Please run it without sudo.

Also, possibly a fix - https://askubuntu.com/questions/822962/apt-get-broken-in-ubuntu-14

Okay, without sudo:

Using Synaptic Package Manager, I was able to force an earlier version of APT, which completely restored Lite Tweaks to normal. The latest version of APT, apparently, was the culprit.

Great.

I wonder when it will be safe to update apt? Is there a way to tell other than trial-and-error?
