Hi,

Plucky suggested I start a new thread (see 10359757).

If I go System > Administration > Update Manager, nothing happens. Same goes for Applications > Ubuntu Software Centre. With the latter, it 'thinks about it' for a few seconds (ie. the cursor turns into the 'working' cursor), but then nothing happens.

The same thing happens if I try clicking a .deb file (working cursor, then nothing).

From the command line, apt-get update/ugrade both work (see thread 10359757), it's just the GUI version of update mgr & U.S.C. that don't.

Please read thread 10359757 first. I did do some updates to my machine which may have caused this problem.

Thanks,
Clark.

Can anyone help me with this? Ubuntu software centre has also stopped working, nor does clicking on a .deb file do anything.

Thanks in advance.
