Problem (short description):
----------------------------
I had to purge gnome-terminal due to a severe problem, in order to purge it synaptic said I also had to remove ubuntu-desktop, and gnome-core. After that was done, attempting to reinstall those files resulted in synaptic reporting Authentication Errors and gave 404 errors when trying to contact any of the repositories for any of these files.

Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
----------
How can I solve this problem and get the necessary files reinstalled?
Note: I am assuming that the only reason I am able to type this is due to my previous GUI session still being active. I am also assuming that I have no terminal access since gnome-terminal has also been uninstalled. I am making this post from the computer that has the problem so my Internet connection is not the problem.
Does this mean I will no longer have access to a working OS if my computer shuts down? Is there a way to fix this using the currently active GUI interface, synaptic, and gedit?
Thanks.
