I believe my Update Manager is broken. When I try to launch it through System > Administration > Update Manager, it quickly appears and then disappears. When I try launching it through the terminal, I receive the following message code...
View 2 RepliesI started the upgrade to 10.4 from 9.10 through the update manager. It started the update to 10.4. After downloading almost 95% of the update, it gave an error message of "could not download certain components. downloaded files will not be erased" and stopped the update. I restarted the PC, and started the update manager again. But now it does not show any option of update to 10.4. how do I continue or resume the update process? I just started using ubuntu about 15 days back. So, I am relatively new to this.

Jaunty Jack - 9.04. Ran update manager last night and ubuntu-one client failed as part of the upgrade. At a loss as to figure out how to fix this. I have removed the ubuntuone-gnome-client and re-installed from the website but now luck.

I think I tried a game emulator a while ago, and the upgrade link is now broken .. but it could be more (I think a lot more) than that.

My package manager is broken.

I tried what they said but the manager is still broken.
It gives me this error report code...
I received this: 'E:Type 'ain' is not known on line 3 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/psyke83-ppa-natty.list'
Update Manager and Packet Manager do not work.
Ubuntu Software Center is also affected.
Error messege: sudo dpkg configure a' to correct the problem. I used synaptic package manager to install WIne....It stalls on"ttf-mscorefonts-installer (3.0". So, I try update manager and it asked me to restart computer which I do. When I try to re-run synaptic manager I get the above error.
View 2 Replies View RelatedOk so I having the same issue as everyone else but it still exists despite the solutions other people are experiencing. Update manager, synaptic, and apt-get are not working no aptitude on here. Update manager says: An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information. report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message: 'E:Encountered a section with no Package: header, Eroblem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty_universe_ i18n_Translation-en%5fUS, E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.' apt-get has errors with headers, finding files, and wrong file types. I have gone to a couple locations and the files exist and the hash is correct, and the file types are correct. I have tried replacing the sources file. I have tried sudo rm -r /var/lib/apt/lists sudo apt-get clean sudo apt-get update with the same problem happening upon updating. In the same exact areas.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI forced the install of graph-tool package [URL]. Now it is of course tagged as broken, so update manager wont do anything. But I want to accept it, I know it is not really broken. (In fact, graph-tool_xxx.deb asks for libcgal4. squeeze only has libcgal5, so I am betting this is not an issue, as far as graph-tool is concerned.)
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust when I thought I was getting my Ubuntu 10.04 system stabilized and really usable, the webcam magically stopped working. When I first installed 10.04, the webcam worked perfectly right out of the box. Tonight, I tried to start the video in a Skype conversation, and nothing. Video preferences in Skype showed no options for a camera. Rebooting the machine didn't help.
The one relevant thing I can think of that happened between the last time it worked and tonight is installing a number of updates. I'm not sure how to look up which packages were installed when -- I'm happy to run commands if someone can provide them.
Unfortunately, I don't remember how it was configured before. Since it was working, I didn't look at /dev to see where the camera shows up. At the moment, there is no /dev/video*. Clearly the system doesn't recognize that the camera is there, but it did before.. I don't recall device specifics. I looked online for a spec sheet that would say who is the webcam manufacturer, but I can only find the resolution. Tomorrow I have to boot into Windows to do some other work and I can get hardware info then.The machine is an MSI A6200 220US; the specs seem not to be available on MSI's website anymore.
When i am updating the following error is coming:
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
By using yum update --skip-broken i am able to update only some applications
After I have installed the 10.04, I found the upgrade manager were not able to connect to the sources.It report an error and said:http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/Release.gpg can't connect to 127.0.0.1:8080 (127.0.0.1)‚ - connect (111: Connection refused)however, my firefox and other applications are able to get access to the internet. (the network interface eth0 is active and works well)
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my EEEPC 1000-HA. I don't have a CDROM because it's a netbook. Everytime I try to do an update, Update Manager says that I must insert the Ubuntu CDROM. It gives me no option to change location so that I can use my USB drive. I can't get updates due to this issue. How do I install the needed files so Update Manager can get updates?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI can't seem to get apt-get or the update manager to work consistently since I upgraded to 10.04. First, I get a regular segmentation fault on about a daily basis, I run sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin as I saw in other threads, and then it usually works.
However now anytime I try to update, upgrade or install, I get the following error:
Reading package lists... Error!
E: Problem parsing dependency Depends
E: Error occurred while processing git-cola (NewVersion1)
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_lucid_universe_ binary-i386_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
I've been using 10.04 for some time, but now Update Manager won't open, nor will Ubuntu Software. With all the apparent problems, I don't plan to upgrade to 10.10, but I do like to keep my OS updated and current.

How to solve this error because my system cannot update or install any new application.
Update manager and software center both run, but when I click on "install," they both just sit there and don't respond. If I run software center from a command line, I get the error "WARNING - _on_trans_error: org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed." (There are no updates right now, so I can't get an error from the update manager.) Apparently they aren't invoking gksudo or whatever it is they need to elevate privileges. I can get around this by running them as root, but it is kind of annoying. I'm really surprised that no one else has had this problem, but I've searched it a number of times and I can't find any indication of someone having the same symptoms.

I can't update or download software.
I've installed the GNOME Update Manager (0.68-debian.7) from the official Debian package archive. However, after checking for new packages and clicking "Install the updates", the update manager asks for rights and then just checks for new updates again. Selecting different packages didn't help either, it just checks for updates again and doesn't update anything. Has anyone experienced the same problem

This happened completely randomly. One day, my synaptic and update manager is working fine and the next day, I open one of them and get a error window that doesn't say anything (no details on the error). So, i tried the terminal, sudo apt-get update, and this message shows:

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was having a problem with a fresh 11.04 install and the VPN software I use for work. I found the fix was to upgrade the software, so I downloaded an RPM, converted it to .deb and installed it via dpkg. The install worked and the VPN software now works, but Package Manager says I have a broken package and wants to 'upgrade' to the older broken one. How can I fix this without breaking my VPN SW again?
