Software-center should have a way to detect this condition and offer to
try to "repair" the files at least.

Title:
can't download any software of any kind from the ubuntu software site
/ untrusted source blocking warning
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
today i can't download any software of any kind from the ubuntu
software site, due to untrusted source blocking warning, saying ok
does not allow it to proceed to download. i did not set any security
related setting differently. please help. I also have 2 other pcs
w/ubuntu 10.10 that an update or s/w download killed the linux ability
to use 3g cell net modem totally forever. i can't reset. all are
pentium 4 pcs.
I did not expect to get another window to use for this request for
help. i am able to use s/w site until today, on this hp proliant pc,
when i downloaded wunderlist, i then could not download any more stuff
at all. this was not stated in wunderlist. i did not change any
settings in this pc. an hp proliant ml310 w/512mb ram. i have 2 other
pcs which i somehow killed the functionality of using the 3g novatel
vm760 wireless modem in these other pcs. which always worked up till
this point. 1 is a rambuss pc w/p4 at 1.8ghz, and the other is a
celeron 2.6ghz pc, and both will not allow any more use of the modem
at all no matter what i do to remove or change settings anywhere, this
happened during updating automatically offered updates and then modem
stopped deliberately. it works fine on this hp pc, but it was working
on the dell rambuss and emachines celeron pc. is there a s/w package i
should look for in the non-communicative pcs to remove? this is a
desperate problem, i have no income, and cannot ever buy a new pc
with windows crap! i need the pcs to work for my ham radio stuff, too.
modem routines must work. modem is a virgin mobile usb module, and
works fine on every pc i plug it into. i do not know if this is a bug
or a bad s/w choice conflicting, i was given no warning for pcs that
lost modem useability. and now this pc will not download any more s/w
from this ubuntu s/w site, due to a warning of untrusted source!!??!!
and when i hit ok, it does not download a thing now.
