Dear Tom,
Indeed I am always a bit nervous when I have to use CLI instead of GUI as I am
not that geek experienced...
However, in while comparing the sources listed in the Kpackage and in the
source.list file, I found a lot of differences. In the GUI one I have just few
of the sources listed, compared with what I can read in the source.list file...
