Bug Description

I was trying to install chromium browser using atp, the progress bar was stuck at 20% for a long while, so I forced closed the Terminal. I tried again to install chromium but I faced with many errors. I've used some of the solves that I found by searching web, such as removing package and redownload it, reconfiguring atp and atp-get etc. but I hadn't any progress!
