Dear Zenaan,
I tried the same by putting those code in a script - myprompt.bash like below
#!/usr/bin/bash
PS1=': '
In terminal, when I run like '. ./myprompt.bash', it is working as expected.
Also I tried with alias like below and that also worked for me.
alias myprompt="export PS1=': '"

I find it useful to have the kernel configuration automatically

Dear Greg,
I am not getting your point "How can it say the existing package is the latest if no
such package exists to begin with?".
Do you mean there is no such package like libstdc++? Actually Debian say's
'libstdc++6 is already the newest version' but it has some more confusing
statements
