Title: Installation problem
Post by: badcashjoe on March 10, 2016, 01:57:44 am

I tried installing codeblocks through the terminal and this message came up. I cannot access my software center either. When I click on it it doesn't open. I am new to linux so this might something simple I don't know about.

Code

jacob@Sally-Inspiron-1545:~$ sudo apt-get install codeblocks
