LL 3.6 Hasn't found updates in months (and refuses to upgrade to LL 3.8)

[Xorcist]

So I want to address this now, as I really wanted to upgrade all my machines to LL 3.8. However I have a single machine running LL 3.6 that just always tells me it's up to date and it's been doing that for months (despite other machines finding and install updates regularly). Currently when I try to upgrade that machine to LL 3.8, I get a message stating I already have the latest version. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? I'm not a Linux expert, but I haven't really changed the system much, so I'm a bit befuddled as to why this is all happening.

Run: sudo apt-get update from the terminal first. If it completes exit the terminal and run Lite Updates from the GUI. After Lite Updates complete reboot and run Lite Upgrade.

Here is the output of the command:

however it did not change anything... both updates and upgrades tell me I'm fully up to date.

Does this command help:

Code:

sudo apt-get -f install

Or this one?

Code:

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

[Xorcist]

dist-upgrade seemed to work, it allowed me to then run Lite Upgrade successfully.

Solved?

I have the same problem. When I run

Code:

sudo apt-get -f install

I get the following output

Some of it is in Dutch but I guess you will get the drift. I do not really get what is going on there. There is 400+GB free on the disk so that 'no space left' error seems weird. Can anyone give me a hint?

BTW, is there a way to have the GUI in Dutch but the command line in English? This computer is used as a 'smart tv' that my kids need to be able to operatte so I set the language to Dutch but the command line messages just sound weird to me in Dutch.
