    Hi everyone i keep getting this error when i try to update from the System settings > add and remove software. Thats all that comes up when it happens. I think it might be happening from a when i tried to install java JDK 6 yesterday. Can anybody help i've no idea how to go about fixing this.

    Close Kpackagekit, open the Konsole, and

    Code:
    sudo dpkg --configure -a
    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    Code:
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
    Post back with any errors from the last command.

      Hiya thanks for the reply but i've managed to fix the problem my self, it was a problem installing the JDK. I just had to re install it. The first time i tried i couldn't accept the licence agreement so just closed it. It turns out i just needed to TAB onto the text. Thanks for the response though.

        Sure. If I had $10 for every person who has stumbled on that license acceptance problem, I could retire tomorrow.
