You can check log file under /var/log/apt directory.  Will be file called "history.log" under it that you can open and inspect with your text editor, leafpad.  Will list most recent packages installed/updated, but I don't think it will show how you answered configuration file question (keep or replace?).

In all likelihood the two config files that the updater asked you about were /etc/issue and /etc/lsb-release.  Since you answered "No" to one and "Yes" to the other, one of yours is different now than it should be.  Here are commands that will show you what yours look like followed by what you should see.  Compare your command results to what they should be and if one of them does not read the same, you will need to edit the file and change it back.

First command:
Code:
cat /etc/issue

What you should see as output:
Code:
Linux Lite 2.0 LTS \n \l


Second command:
Code:
cat /etc/lsb-release

What you should see as output:
Code:
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux Lite 2.0"


Once you see which of the two files needs to be changed, follow directions as posted here for the particular file you are changing.  You can follow directions starting at this point in that post:
Code:
To make the change
1. Open the file manager, Thunar
2. Navigate to the /etc folder in Thunar

The post describes changing the /etc/lsb-release file.  If you need to change /etc/issue, just substitute that and follow same procedure to change it.
