I am a beginner in ubuntu.
I tried to update my ubuntu through software updater. It downloaded all packages and started installing but some problem seems to have happened with the libreoffice-calc package, i.e. it was installed incorrectly. Now every time i open ubuntu software center, i get an error "New software can't be installed because there is a problem with the software currently installed. Do you want to repair this peoblem now ?". When i try the option repair on this error window, it too doesn't help.
