i had no internet for a duration of 2 months. and i just got net.. my update manager has been working a lot as a result. but, after the downloading of update. while its running the pacakegs.. it says completed with error, exit status 2 2.. also, when i remove any package through ubuntu software center, it gets 90% completed and gives the following error

"Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the restart(8) utility, e.g. restart acpid
acpid start/running, process 3061
package libqtgui4 exist
QT_VERSION = 4
cd: 160: can't cd to /usr/local/bin/ztemtApp/zteusbserial/2.6.32
dpkg: error processing crossplatformui (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
"
downloading, generally gives me,
"The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources."
even though its just a normal package like empathy and audacity..

im not a programmer, im new with ubuntu.
any help would be appreciated.
thanks in advance

What happens if you boot the machine and run


sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

?

"dpkg : error processing crossplat formui (-configur):

Errors were encountered while processing:
crosspl atformui
E: sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an arror code (1)"

You could try to remove the packages giving trouble by


apt-get --purge remove <package>

Can you update after this?

Which version of Ubuntu are you using, by the way?
