Both the above packages give me a transaction set error and
will not install thru Synaptic.

Did you click Reload first? Did you try a different mirror? Not much useful information in the above.

Hi,

Yes, I reran everything.   Fresh speed test, reloaded three repos, tried
to install from each one.   Exact wording is -

E:   Transaction set check failed

Same error message from all three for both packages.

If you're using lxde-mini, install system-config-printer.

Yes that did it for both packages.   They're both installed and on the
screen.

Thanks much.
