Hello everybody,
linux ubuntu 16.04 LTSx64 desktop, this ubuntu istance was installed 4 mounths ago, but now somethings dont work
installation of packages does not work for me:
- ubuntu_software_center opens, but if I write the name of the software, and I click "Install", the installation will not start
- installing the .deb package clicking on it, it does not work either
- "$ sudo apt-get install PACKAGENAME" works!

the output of $ sudo apt-get update, it seems that something is not right about the external repository (I regret, some texts are in Italian)
$ sudo apt-get update
