I know you guys are tired of me and my problems by now… but im still learning so bare with me…
when i try to use “apt-get” anything its like the process gets hung up and will not complete… I was getting an error saying that another process was using it but now it just appears that it gets stuck. For instance…
when i try to install something it will attempt but stop at the part that says “xx space will be used to install” and ususally there it will ask yes or no…but now its not even giving that option… it just stops and doesnt respond to anything
I goggled around and thats all I came up with… none of the solutions seemed to work that were presented.
Patrick, I’ve installed a completely fresh whonix because I assumes it would solve that issue but I am still experiencing the same exact problem. This is the output I get when trying to “kdesudo apt-get install pidgin”:
user@host:~$ kdesudo apt-get install pidgin

Need to get 50.8 MB of archives.
After this operation, 107 MB of additional disk space will be used.
This is where normally you would answer yes or no, but there is no option, and when I attempt to close out the terminal at this point, its tells me that “the process kdesudo is still running would I still like to close”
Can you shine some light on this issue, or anyone?
As I mentioned before I am using terminal inside workstation and I have allotted a ton of ram to Workstation as well. This is really frusterating guys.
