Hi, everybody! :)
Are we moving "on the fly" from 5.0 to 5.2?
I am asking this, because for at least 3 weeks, I received lots of updates and some kernel ones, too.
While the kernel for 5.2 depicted here is 5.4.0-48, my currrent one is 5.4.0-52.
I also received lots of updates regarding system components, that have nothing to do with my cusom settings (PPAs) and that makes me think there is a slow but steady upgrade process in place.
I've noticed that transition also from 4.6 to 4.8.
If this is the case, I'd like to say that it is a SMOOTH transition, nothing went broke, everything runs fine, except some glitches from OpenShot, but I use daily snapshots so that is understandable.
Thanks for all the great work! :)
PS. While I was writing, I got a new update notice, although I just updated, some couple of hours ago... :). System components, again. MySQL, and some other lib.
Works great! :)

one thing that would cool to know how to do , is to uninstall, remove, or purge adobe flash, after a person installs the "Restricted Extras package"

Good question:


--- Code: ---sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-installer
--- End code ---

Then perhaps use a apt-mark hold to stop it reinstalling:


--- Code: ---sudo apt-mark hold flashplugin-installer
--- End code ---

awesome, worked like a charm.
Firefox browser no longer has the flash plugin and its removed from the system as well.

one thing to note tho, google chrome browser and chromium browser currently have adobe flash player(plugin)  built into their browser, thats ok tho, alls one has to do is
disable the flash plugin , thats it.

Thank you Jerry  8) ;) :D

when Linux Lite 5.2 comes out as a final version, i intend to install the "Restricted Extras package", but  want to purge adobe flash after i install the "Restricted Extras package".

i am going to do a clean install, when the final comes out, currently i am using Linux Lite 5.0 64bit, runs nice.
take your time, hugs, love the work you and the team are doing !.  :-*
