Also affects me -- this is particular troublesome bug for new people
(ubuntus target demographic) since Chrome, a popular browser with
syncing abilities, can only be installed via a work around.

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (clean install). 64-bit. Final release.
  Gnome-software version: 3.20.1+git20160420.1.ca63436.ubuntu-xenial-0ubuntu2
    Version table:

  I intended to install MEGA Sync Client, Google Chrome and Dropbox by
  downloading the needed packages from their websites (respectively
  https://mega.nz/#sync and https://www.google.com/chrome/ and
  https://www.dropbox.com/install?os=lnx ). I opened the packages one by
  one with gnome-software and pressed Install - nothing, except for a
  super-quick progress bar animation, happened. No matter how many times
  I tried, same result. Also, an icon pops up on the panel saying
  "Waiting to install", but nothing seems to happen.

  This only seems to happen with third-party packages; installing a
  random deb from packages.ubuntu.com/xenial worked.

  I even tried to reinstall the system to make this work, but same
  problem.

  Gdebi, however, installs the packages as expected.

[Ubuntustudio-bugs] [Bug 1603501] Re: gimp: symbol lookup error: gimp: undefined symbol: gegl_param_multiline_get_type

2016-07-20 Thread George Shuklin 
For those who affected - you can downgrade gimp a bit:

apt-cache policy gimp

choose older version and install it (I showing example with exact
versions, your available version may differ):

sudo apt-get install gimp=2.8.16-1ubuntu1.1

Title:
  gimp: symbol lookup error: gimp: undefined symbol:
  gegl_param_multiline_get_type

Status in gimp package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On fully up to date 16.10 installs, gimp no longer starts.

  1.  Run 'gimp' from console.
  2.  Console returns:  "gimp: symbol lookup error: gimp: undefined symbol: 
gegl_param_multiline_get_type" and exits, instead of starting the app.

  The installed package/version of gimp is 2.8.16-1ubuntu3.  Gimp was
  previously working fine on this install, so my guess is the symbol was
  deprecated/removed in a new version of some gegl lib.
