How are you kicking off the installer?

From the Ubuntu Software Center, The box that describes Rubrica has a button that says Install, I click on that.

NO, I haven't done any command line stuff, only been on Ubuntu for two weeks.

Copy the command I gave as ONE command
Press CTRL+ALT+T
Paste the command to the terminal
Press ENTER
Enter your password as normal and copy the output once the prompt returns

It doesn't matter that you haven't used any command line stuff. I give the EXACT command you need so it doesn't matter

NB. Please make sure you are not getting any updates and that software centre is closed when you run the command or it won't work

Thanks
