Okay. I used: *sudo apt-get --purge autoremove qgis*
It appeared to successfully remove a series of packages. Next I did: *sudo apt-get install python-software-properties* Seemed to work. *sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable Executing: gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --secret-keyring /tmp/tmp.mZECgujMeJ --trustdb-name /etc/apt/trustdb.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --primary-keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80/ --recv 6B827C12C2D425E227EDCA75089EBE08314DF160 gpg: requesting key 314DF160 from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com gpg: key 314DF160: "Launchpad ubuntugis-stable" not changed gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: unchanged: 1* Okay. Looking good. *sudo apt-get update* Received the following error: * E: Type 'eb' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntugis-ubuntugis-unstable-precise.list E: The list of sources could not be read.* Okay. Easy fixed. Went into the file stated and added the "d" to the "eb" so it read "deb". Tried update again. No errors generated. * sudo apt-get install qgis* Everything appeared to work. So... * qgis Warning: loading of qgis translation failed [/usr/share/qgis/i18n//qgis_en_US] Warning: loading of qt translation failed [/usr/share/qt4/translations/qt_en_US]* QGIS launches, but I still don't have the capability to fetch plugins. This is the error I was getting originally. So at the very least, QGIS works again, but we haven't fixed my original problem.
