Not able to install through Ubuntu software center
I get this message each time i try to install through software center
"The installation could have failed because of an error in the corresponding software package or it was cancelled in an unfriendly way. You have to repair this before you can install or remove any further software."
As far as i remember i canceled the installation of software yesterday, after that i am getting this issue.
Please let me known how to resolve this.
Thanks
