Ubuntu Software Centre will not allow software downloads. Have to use terminal
This message box appears.
Failed to download package files. Check your Internet connection.
This is not an Internet problem as the package will download using SUDO in terminal. Thought possible that firestarter was blocking but uninstalled and made no difference. Don't know if this is a bug or not but using report a problem only has one option.
