Every time i try to get anything from the software centre i get this message:
The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources.
It was working fine, but i updated ubuntu, using the update manager and since then the software centre has stopped working.
Alright so when I go to the Ubuntu Software Installer and and I try to install software, it wont let me. I can look at the software and choose which to install. It will ask me for authentication and it accepts it but when downloading it, it never passes 0%. Does anybody have any ideas whats wrong? Thanks so much for any input.

When I attempt to download the restricted extras from the software center, I get the following error message:

I have 2 Ubuntu CDs, the alternate x64 and the desktop x86. I've inserted both and still gave me the same error. The computer is running the alternate x64 version. I've already reinstalled this computer 4 times, and it NEVER asked me for the CD. Why would it ask for it now? Not only that it asks for a CD I don't have.
I have a problem with installing application from so could software center just because in the line with the program there is no bottom install that is present in some programs. So could any body explain me why is so and what is necessary to do. i am relatively new in linux so no have much idea on using it.

When I try to launch the program from the terminal I get a bus error, I've tried removing and reinstalling it, but this does not solve it. Any one have ideas of how to fix this (other than just reinstalling ubuntu)?

I seem to have caused a problem with the software center in Ubuntu 10.10. When I pick out a piece of software and click 'install' I see it doing something (CPU goes up etc.), but the usual "fill in your password" window doesn't pop up and after say 10 secs the 'install' button in the software center returns to its normal state, i.e. as if I hadn't pressed it yet at all.
I am afraid this is related to a manual install (i.e. through apt-get in a terminal) I did some time ago (I was following an online tutorial to get DVD playback working properly) that probably went wrong (the installation process did get stuck at some point, when it hadn't progressed for a long time (>1 hour) I saw no other option than to quit the terminal). I don't remember exactly what packages I was trying to install though.
What would be the best way to get software center going again?
When I try to open Ubuntu software center, it appears on the process bar for about 10 seconds before it disappears. I can't get it to start.
I have tried alt+f2 and typing 'software-center', didn't help. I tried reinstalling ubuntu software center in Synoptic package manager, but I got this error message: "E: /var/cache/apt/archives/software-center_3.0.7_all.deb: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1"
This started to happen after I reinstalled Ubuntu 10.10. After I did that, I got the 'modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.8.custem/modules.deb, no such
file or directory.' error. Could these two problems be related in any way?
I recently installed ubuntu 11.04 on my computer and all had been going good except for this little snag.here's the thing :whenever i try to install something using the software center, the file doesn't get downloaded and the progress bar says "applying changes" which obviously goes on for infinity.I read somewhere that another guy had been experiencing similar problems after installing "ubuntu restricted extras" (codecs) and he solved it by uninstalling the codecs.I noticed that even my last successful install was those codecs.problem is, my s/w center doesn't even uninstall them.i don't know any other way to install apps nor can i figure out how to reinstall s/w center.

Today, I wanted to install Skype from the .deb file. When I double-click the file, I get a "wait" cursor for ~20 sec, then nothing happens. When I try to start Software Center from the Main menu, I also get the Wait cursor and then nothing happens.
I started software-center from the terminal and the software center opened, despite some warnings in the terminal. I could install some random application from the list. Then I tried to start

And the software center window showed, with Skype selected. When I clicked Install, there was an error message. Despite the "no such a file or directory" part, I am sure that the file name is correct (I tab-completed it).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm currently running 10.04. Great OS! However, the one small thing that annoys me is with the software centre, it doesn't tell you the size of the download. I know this probably doesn't bother people if you've got 50mb internet and unlimited downloads, however, I have 3.5mb, and a download limit!
Is there A) anyway I can get software centre to tell me the size of a download, and B) is this altered in later versions - due to my limit I don't want to download them to see - catch 22!
