    how to manage packages in a smart way?

    Hello, I was working on sth when an error occured:

    Code:
    ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Crypto'
    seems like I'm missing some packages... So I typed:

    Code:
    apt-dist upgrade
    downloaded about 1gb updates from repository, but still missing the crypto one... So i typed:

    Code:
    apt search crypto
    It listed a lot of packages containing... well, I'm not sure what.

    I'm using very old laptop, I'm sure that I'll have more and more errors like that. I don't want to clutter my PC each time I encounter an error, I'd like to download a package that is fitted for my purpose.

    How can I manage this in a smart way? Is there a way to download exactly the package I need each time? Also in this case - which "crypto" exactly do I need?

    cheers

    Linux is case sensitive did you look for Crypto and not crypto?

    No, you upgraded before updating:

    Code:
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt upgrade
