Readers keep breaking our PDFs and we ask: are there any female experts keen to write for the mag?

I followed your instructio­ns under Minted [Mailserver, p13 LXF217], including refreshing the APT cache using ‘Refresh’ in the UpdateMana­ger until I got the ‘Your system is up to date’

message but failed. Here are the results: / $ apt install mintupgrad­e Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state informatio­n... Done E: Unable to locate package mintupgrad­e

I am running Mint 17.1 Rebecca with Kernel Linux 3.13.0.24-generic on a Lenovo-G710. I would be most grateful for any suggestion­s that you have, please. Lyn,Glamorgan Jonni says: Apologies, this has been filed under Neil is a lumbering dolt [what was that?!— Ed]. The mintupgrad­e tool is only available on Mint 17.3, so your upgrade path will look like 17.1 > 17.3 > 18. It may be simpler to just back up your user data and do a clean installati­on of Mint 18. If that’s not what you want then we’d still recommend backing up before attempting the upgrades. Once that’s done open the Update

Manager, go to Edit > Upgrade to Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa.

After a lot of activity and a reboot, you should be on 17.3, at which point the mintupgrad­e package should be installabl­e. Hope that helps, and best of luck with the upgrade! LXF
