[Bug 826374] Re: UBUNTU SOFTWARE CENTER NOT WORKING AFTER UPDATE

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

nithin_aneesh, you say dpkg works. Does apt-get work?

I ask because on Reddit, someone described the same symptoms, but in
their case, apt-get did not work either, with the error “The package
lists or status file could not be parsed or opened”.

Title:
  UBUNTU SOFTWARE CENTER NOT WORKING AFTER UPDATE

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The Ubuntu Software Center 4.0.4 is not be working on my 11.04 x64
  (2.6.38-10-generic) after update . It goes to the "get software"
  section and lists the various categories, however upon clicking those
  categories, it shows the little pin-wheel as if its loading, though it
  stays on that pin-wheel indefinitely. The same thing for when I use
  the search box. It is also doing the same thing for the "installed
  software" section. In addition, it there is no sign of the additional
  repositories that I have added either. Also additional packages that I
  download from net also fails to install via software center but can be
  installed via dpkg.
