Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that there was an error on your system when trying to install a particular package. Please execute the following command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:
sudo apt-get clean Then try performing the update again. This will likely resolve your issue, but the failure could be caused by filesystem or memory corruption. So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a memory test. Thanks in advance! [This is an automated message. I apologize if it reached you inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.] ** Tags added: corrupted-package ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1430818 Title: package firefox 36.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.4 failed to install/upgrade: cannot copy extracted data for './usr/lib/firefox/omni.ja' to '/usr/lib/firefox/omni.ja.dpkg-new': unexpected end of file or stream Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: in an effort to sllow down firefox crashes, and to get flash plug-in installer working again, I used a downloaded firefox and installed into /opt.
