Update Manager is reporting this error:
Failed to fetch us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/s/software-center/software-center_5.2.2_all.deb
404 Not Found
I checked and my Internet connection is working fine.
The correct package name is software-center_5.2.2.2_all.deb (three point-twos, not two). The discrepancy is probably because you haven't updated recently and have the no-longer-available older 5.2.2
version in Update Manager's cache.
Press the Check button in Update Manager and then try Install again (thanks @EliahKagan!)
If that doesn't work, try opening the terminal with Ctrl-Alt-T
and then run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
. Then close the terminal and try Update Manager again.
apt-get
in the Terminal, and you still get that message, then you can fix apt
and dpkg
locking problems either by rebooting or by opening a Terminal window and running the commands in step 5 of this procedure.

apt-get
. There are 147 items to be updated so I will let it run to see what happens.
update && upgrade
I rebooted and... Sorry, Ubuntu 12.04 has experienced an internal error. (follows a list of ~20 items). Suggestions??
Did you try updating the repo?
apt-get update
There is also apt-get clean
I've had a similar error and then I did apt-get update and it was fixed. Hope this helps!
root
with sudo
. Also, apt-get clean
won't help this (though it won't hurt)--it just removes cached .deb
package files, but Ubuntu doesn't decide which version of a package to install based on what package installers are cached on the local machine.
