Hello Chris,
The situation seems to have rectified itself.
I remember it happening before, about six months or so ago.
It's almost as if a change in distribution has snuck up on me unawares.
The vast majority of "installed packages" gets dumped into "Obsolete and
Locally Created Packages".
I hang on patiently for a couple of days and the situation rights itself.
I just thoughtn I would write in about it this time.
I'll see if there's anything in the logs and get back, but, as I say, the
situation has righted itself.
Kind regards,
Weaver
