I', sent this previously but so far no reply. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of this issue. I did an update & the trunk version of linux-image was installed as the upgraded version. A few weeks later I tried to install the newer regular version & after a few attempts it finally installed & grub configured it. However it is not properly configured according to the installer as it keeps trying to configure the non-trunk version every time I do an update. Now I've been able to select the non-trunk version & have my system running it, even though it's not properly configured. I tried to then remove the trunk ver. & this is the error message I get. ------------------------------------------------- (Reading database ... 431717 files and directories currently installed.)
