I ran the following command to upgrade: sudo apt-get install upgrade. For some reason, the upgrade of the package google-chrome-stable is not going as expected - it downloads the 40MB package but it freezes mid way and starts all over again from 0kb (for google-chrome-stable only). I assume that it has finished downloading other packages but it cannot proceed to install them since download of a package is still pending.

How do I skip this package so that it can proceed with the installation and upgrade of other packages which have been downloaded completely.

Keep in mind that the upgrade is currently running so removing the repository from ubuntu software center will be for future upgrades - I need a solution for an upgrade happening right now.

I installed node and npm using the instructions provided here

I was able to use node successfully. However, as I attempt to install the "Formidable" node module, I get the following error:

$npm install formidable
bash: /usr/local/bin/npm: /usr/local/bin/node: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

When I do a which npm I get the following output:

$which npm
/usr/local/bin/npm

I have no clue on what is wrong with npm here - any idea on how I can fix this?
