Is it just me or has Ubuntu 9.04 become broken by not allowing any software to be installed. I have done two clean installs and still the synaptic package manager does not show any items that are not installed. Also I am unable to install any software from the command line. Has the creators of Ubuntu put a lock on version 9.04 because this is really annoying. The software worked before I reinstalled Ubuntu but does anybody have any ideas? I'm just trying to install Apache, mysql, php, webmin and virtualmin.

Have you tried changing your package server? You can go to System->Software Sources and pick a different server to see if that does anything interesting. It might be your local repository is down.
If that doesn't work, you …
Jump to Post"apt-get update" updates the list of available packages so your system knows what can actually be installed.
Did the solution work for you?
