Tried to install google chrome browser on 11.04 because I'm told it is faster & may work better with flash video.
Problem is it gives errors on install:
Unpacking google-chrome-stable (from google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of google-chrome-stable:
google-chrome-stable depends on libcurl3; however:
Package libcurl3 is not installed.
dpkg: error processing google-chrome-stable (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

Errors were encountered while processing:
google-chrome-stable
So a little research & I find this: http://techthatclicks.com/2011/07/18/how-to-install-google-chrome-on-ubuntu-11-04/
so I try:
sudo aptitude install google-chrome-stable
result:
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libcurl3{a}
The following partially installed packages will be configured:
google-chrome-stable
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
Need to get 220 kB of archives. After unpacking 553 kB will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?] y
E: I wasn't able to locate file for the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
E: I wasn't able to locate file for the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
E: Internal error: couldn't generate list of packages to download
This still doesn't seem good.
I got this too somehow in a popup:
Items cannot be installed or removed until the package catalog is repaired. Do you want to repair it now?
I figure why not? So I hit the Repir button. Here is the result:
There seems to be a programming error in aptdaemon, the software that allows you to install/remove software and to perform other package management related tasks.
Details:

SystemError: E:I wasn't able to locate file for the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
Am I doing something wrong? So far Ubuntu Linux has been a real pain.
