Hello all,
I ran
sudo apt-get upgrade
yesterday, and scanning the output, I noticed that both ubuntu-desktop and software-center packages were removed.
I attempted to reinstall them, but could not due to errors. Today I was able to reinstall them but during the install there were numerous packages not found in the output for software-center install.
It said it installed successfully, but when I try to initialize the software center, it opens briefly then closes, then give an apport crash report...
I have attempted:
1) sudo apt-get install -f software-center
which outputs: software-center is already the newest version.2) fix broken packages via synaptic --> said it was successful
3) sudo dpkg-reconfigure software-center --force and got this output:
Code:
Updating software catalog...this may take a moment.

When I try to open software-center via terminal, I get this output:

(software-center:3152): Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'software-center' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)'.
(Details: serial 1683 error_code 9 request_code 62 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)
