Hello folks.
I am very much lost with all the programs taken out of this version. I last used a version 10.xx with lots of programs.
However, I am unable to clear a folder which is low on space. I forget where the folder is but it's where the updates are stored. The popup box tells me to use sudo apt-get clean but this does nothing when I use the terminal.
How can I get this resolved?
Thanks. Richard

The three apt-get commands that remove unneeded bits and pieces are:-
apt-get clean apt-get autoclean apt-get autoremove
See 'man apt-get' for what each does.

Have you tried
sudo apt-get autoremove
Others may have better suggestions, of course.
