I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 in my PC (Fresh)

I tried to install some software I wanted from Ubuntu Software Center but some of them were not found.

It shows this error:

"There isn’t a software package called “gimp” in your current software sources."

updating cache

Querying softwares sources

What should I do to fix this error?

  1. Did you use the following commands in the Terminal after you freshly installed your Ubuntu. (If you did not do it now)

    sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

    then search again in the Ubuntu Software Center. If you still can't see the software try this in the Terminal >>

    sudo apt-get install gimp
