<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Harish,<br><br></div>One more hack you can do is by following the thread : <a href="http://askubuntu.com/questions/37753/how-can-i-get-apt-to-use-a-mirror-close-to-me-or-choose-a-faster-mirror">http://askubuntu.com/questions/37753/how-can-i-get-apt-to-use-a-mirror-close-to-me-or-choose-a-faster-mirror</a>. So what I want to convey you is try changing the mirror. And lets see how that will help you. Note: Please take a backup of your orignal sources.list file. Try this only if you are *not* having trouble with downloading the gz files mentioned by Shantanu. <br>

<br></div>Which basically means something went wrong when downloading these files. Try sudo apt-get update few more times till this is fixed. If it still doesnt go away, try a different network connection. Failure to download these is causing the problems installing the packages.<br>
