Unable to download software center from package manager: 404 Not Found


I removed software center from the terminal and after that I tried to install it from synaptic package manager. Now I get a message saying that it's unable to retrieve a few packages. Have a look:

I actually was getting report error pop-ups and was irritated with it so removed the software center and after that I never got this error. Please help me.



The packages have been updated in the repository.


I would recommend you run an update to refresh your "indexes" before retrying the installation i.e.


sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
