Update manager & Synaptic problems...

[Anthony Gardner]

Is it always the same error?

what's fgets? I can;t find that on my system.

If fgets is installed on your system, maybe try un/reinstalling it.

Trying to recover.

Has anyone had this problem, if so, could you please explain to me the

Thanks for any help on this matter...
