    cannot install purchased game in software center

    Hi,

    I have purchased the game "psychonauts" in ubuntu software center, but everytime I try to install it, after downloading ca. 200MB I get the error:
    GnuTLS recv error (-24): Decryption has failed

    Any ideas?

    Is the game installation file a "deb" file? If so you can try installing with Gdebi (available in the software center in you do not already have it installed).

    Don't waste your energy trying to change opinions ... Do your thing, and don't care if they like it.

    the game installation file seems to be a .deb, located here:
    https://private-ppa.launchpad.net/co...ntu1_amd64.deb
    unfortunately, i cannot even download it (tried with "sudo apt-get download"), so using gdebi doesn't help.

    the information provided at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu...uestion/199274 also didn't help...

    as nobody seems to know why this is not working, is there an official support channel? (I have paid for this game and if I can't even download it, well, I think there' something fundamentally wrong with buying software through ubuntu software center)
