[ubuntu-studio-users] ubuntu-studio-users Digest, Vol 116, Issue 3

[Charlie Luna]

hey ralf. i'm using 16.04 and i got it fixed. i had completely forgotten to check mark some options in the software updater and when i did, the fix for the software center was there for me to download and install. it was my oversight but now it works great.
