Hi, for a few days, I can not run software-center, because it hangs. After click on an icon (munu ==> software-center) nothing happens, nothing appears just window - I mean there is not e.g. Game, Multimedia categories on the left and only one possible way is to close software-center window by clicking on [x] (right corner). When I trying to run software-center via console with 'software-center' command, appears something like this;

Only one way, because of freeze is to press 'ctrl + z' (a couple of times):
