Software center is not working after attempt to install skype
- by user288690
I am completely new person on Linux. I installed it just today and i have to say I like them a lot, until I faced the problem. I was looking on the internet but nothing worked for me.
After i downloaded skype and tried to run it, software center showed up and was loading something for 5 mins. then it just dessapeared. Now everytime I try to turn it on, the window is gone after 3 sec. I tried to kill it but didnt really wokrked. I get this message when trying to run it from the terminal:
whats_new_cat = self._update_whats_new_content()
File "/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/views/lobbyview.py", line 240, in _update_whats_new_content
docs = whats_new_cat.get_documents(self.db)

File "/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/db/pkginfo_impl/aptcache.py", line 281, in __contains__
return self._cache.__contains__(k)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '__contains
when trying to kill it via terminal, it says there is no process like this.
