I am in California, same as the Purism company. The Librem is online.
Edit: Partial solution provided by tech support…
sudo apt clean
sudo rm -rf /var/cache/apt/*
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
PureOS now shown as updated. Repo conflict is resolved. Applications in ‘Software’ app still show splash text: “Unable to remove [APPLICATION]: no packages to remove.” Was able to remove “cheese” via terminal, however, many others still output:
E: Unable to locate package [PACKAGE]
Thoughts?
