Hello, I apologize for my mental deficits. (I will leave that story for the end, don't read it if you feel huried,) I Respect what you do and I REALLY, REALLY hate to ask for this level of assistance. I'm using PureOS, which I guess is a derivative of Debian. I had started with 7.0 (Wheezy) and went to 8.0. I never had the gonads to use Sid TBH. I ran the stables. Although I ws a TINY variant by running a KDE desktop. I also had XFCE and LXDE? installed, for really no other reason than I had read about them and certain authors SWORE by them so I gave them a whirl.
O.K. as i'm sure you will see, I am operating PureOS. I haven't honestly kept up as well as I would wish as my internet is EXCLUSIVELY through my cell phone now. (What can I say, it's one of the "wonders" of being poor in the USA, which is better than poor in any 3rd world country. I'm now complaining, simply sharing that I'm trying to do my best with what I have.) Again I digress (OK, I'm 90% digressed! I wY to be brief with my story and after that will be a cut and paste of EVERYTHING I xould put on the screen so you could see what U saw and hope it will give you some insight into what is going wrong and how t fix the problem. At this point, I am siply going to hopr yhat this is not 100% the result of my failed updating. *PERSONAL STORY*: Ok, do NOT read this if pressed for time, however, you may possibly, in some way benefit from reading "some other blokes" rough story. I recieved my TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) On Februry 23rd, 2006. How do I know this? well, when I was in coma; (from what I experienced was on the average for those that were able to resume life afterwards;) I had lost orientation to where and WHEN I was! I had some misunderstandings. I THOUGHT I was a dew YEARS earlier than when I was and did not know I was HOME... NOT in the ARMY! So, when I was awoken at 9:00 a.m. and saw the sun FULLY RISEN, shining in it's blazing glory, not like it i at o'dark thirty in the morning, i was freaked out! I started getting frustrated at some poor nurse, (which I later felt SO BAD about my mis-reaction that I made a trip JUST to apologize to her!) I yelled something to the effect of, "Why did you wake me for PT so LATE!!! The 1SG (First Sargent) is going to f*ck!n* kill me! I'll be article 15'ed! I don't want that $hi! (it was understood in the military article 15 is 1/2 pay + extra duty for 2 weeks + deferred promotion (which is MORE lost pay,)) (suffice to say, was REALLY, REALLY, bad! Thuse, was avoided TREMENDOUSLY!) .... poor, poor nurse.... I wsn't 100% swering 2 of every 3 words forming a constructive and coherent sentence... yet. BUT she was able to glimse down that hall nd see the room on the end. Long story short again, that was after my INITIAL brain injury.... which honestly was HUGE for me! It was like taking a 52 card deck + 2 jokers and then taking the jokers out and 5 random cards which NOBODY knew WHICH specific ones were taken out. After that I had a couple shunt "revisions", which involve me being put to sleep and have them open my head to repair the "shunt", a device that basically helps my body do what most do naturally. I wke up 90-95% of who I was before, much like the initial TBI. but 95% of 95%f 95% is GREAT! wgn looking at the alternative OF COURSE! but 95% of 95%f 95% is 85.7%... not terrible but that is on the upper end too, and a 4th time will be 85.4% / if it were even slightly less like 92.5% it would be 79.2% ans 73.2% respectively. My mistake was being god at math and NOT takinf it as a major! DOH! as promised, here us *EVERYTHING* from my *terminal window*: I messed up! there was a process that dely I umped more info and it overwrote! ARRRGHH! I will try to reproduce it https://www.maketecheasier.com/backup-files-to-google-drive-linux/ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alessandro-strada/ppa sudo apt update && sudo apt install google-drive-ocamlfuse mkdir -p ~/mount/google-drive I believe I created this dir and this is where the headaches started: google-drive-ocamlfuse ~/mount/google-drive strangely I had a similar readout after I attempted to run reportbug.... but i am honeslty a bit foggy on what I did: timdanielson@td546:~$ google-drive-ocamlfuse ~/mount/google-drive Could not find the database of available applications, run update-command-not-found as root to fix this Sorry, command-not-found has crashed!
