apt - Not able to install software on Ubuntu 12.10


I am newbie with Ubuntu.I am trying to download Okular pdf reader from Software Center but I am getting some error.
At first it was asking for installation of packages from not authenticated source,when I click on Use this source it goes and do something like


upadating cache enter image description here


Then after some time it shows me this error:
enter image description here


I read this question "Requires installation of untrusted packages?"and tried to rebuild cache as given in first answer using :


sudo apt-get clean
cd /var/lib/apt
sudo mv lists lists.old
sudo mkdir -p lists/partial
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update

and got this output:

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Then I tried to re-install Okular but again getting same errors. I have tried changing software source to Main Server and also enabled authentication for third party software sources but still no progress.



Ubuntu 12.10 is not supported any more since May 2014. You either need to update to a more recent version of Ubuntu (i.e. 14.04), or find an alternative repository. The alternative repository for 12.10 is released here (thanks @rubo77 for finding it). More information on upgrading can be found here.
