Things worked as they should in Lubuntu Trusty (14.04.2 LTS). So I went back to Lubuntu Wily. The bug appeared in a Wily system, which was updated/upgraded from an iso file that was a couple of days old. I zsynced and flashed the current iso file (Lubuntu Wily desktop i386) and tried again. This time it worked from sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mkusb/unstable There is a correct entry in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mkusb-ubuntu-unstable-wily.list and it was possible to install and run the relevant software (mkusb). I am not sure what happened, if I did something wrong and can't remember it, or if there was an error of this pre-alpha Wily system, some temporary error at Launchpad or in the data transfer via the internet. Anyway, it works now, so we can close the bug report :-) Best regards Nio -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
