Results of recent update/upgrade shows a jump from 4K (post #5) to 6Km packages listed?

search in synaptic for "inxi"

It'll save us some head aches in this thread. Looking at your screenshot. Now that looks more normal.

I'm pretty sure the 6000-something is the packages available to install? Have you poked around here: https://wiki.debian.org/Synaptic especially:

External links?

Add: that last external link seems broken, think it should be: https://manpages.debian.org/bullseye...ptic.8.en.html

...man... ...A manual with detailed instructions can be found in the help menu of Synaptic....

I will take your word for it that all is normal, thank you.
