Synaptic Problems¶

If you use Synaptic to install our Linux software, some times the quick search function doesn't work. It doesn't show that the WeSay package is available. This is a known issue with Synaptic, particularly in Jaunty.

A work around it to open a terminal and type:

sudo update-apt-xapian-index

This will rebuild the indexes used by Synaptic.
