Not allowed to update
#4
I've solved the problem.

Because I have made the mistake to use as the "normal users" account name a name which already exists in the reused partition /home. The normal user from installation of LL has unusual configuration, for example not the GUI which Linux Lite uses.

Therefore after installation I've created another non-root user. He was not able to update software.

I solved the problem in checking to which groups the normal user form installation belongs. Then I logged in with a terminal as root (via "su root") and added the new user to all those groups, which are now these:

Code:
bsto@besto-desktop:~$ groups
bsto adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare

Maybe he needed membership in the group "adm"to update software. Now update is in process while I'm writing.
