Hi , Yes I can install other packages from the Software Center and via Synaptic .Sometimes the download is quite slow , but most of the time there is no problem at all . I should have said earlier that I am using Ubuntu 9.10 , with a mobile broadband connection . I am also an absolute beginner with Ubuntu , having just switched from Windows a few days ago . I was sick-and-tired of the security issues with Windows . So I am trying to install all the programs that I generally use . PAX , John.

Hi , Sorry to take so long in replying to you , I was at church this morning . And also thank you for your welcome to the 'Ubuntu Community'. Unfortunately the solution you asked me to try did not work . I tried to download from 3 other servers and the response was always the same , the download stops at 5% . PAX , John.

I would just like to take a moment to say "Welcome to the Ubuntu community!" As for your bug, I think we are looking at a problem with the mirror server that your computer is attempting to download from. Could you please go to System -> Administration -> Software Sources. Once the window opens up, you should find the "Ubuntu Software" tab selected. One of the options is a drop-down menu next to "Download from:" If you click on that drop-down menu, you will find the option of "Other..." Could you please select "Other..." and choose a different server that is located relatively close to your location? Afterwards, you can close that window. You should then open a terminal and run 'sudo apt-get update' (without the quotation marks) so your computer will get the information it needs from those servers. After that, could you try once more to download the gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad package? Hopefully the download will be successful. If it is, then you can either choose to return the Software Sources settings to their default, or you can leave them changed, it doesn't matter. If it does not work, then please try one or two more servers, just in case you happened to choose the server your computer was already trying to download from. After you have tried the above solution, please leave a comment letting us know whether or not it worked so we know if we can close this report or if we must investigate it further.

Thank you for trying the possible solution, and sorry it did not work.
Unfortunately, we currently do not have enough information to officially
confirm your bug since there do not seem to be any other reports of
others experiencing the same issue. If you could please clarify a few
more questions for me, we will hopefully be able to find a solution for
you, or at the very least get this report filed to the right developers.
1. Did you run the 'sudo apt-get update' command each time you switched
servers?
2. After switching servers, did you try installing the package in the
Software Center as well as Synaptic?
3. Have you tried installing from the terminal? ('sudo apt-get install
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad')
4. I am not able to find a "gstreamer0.10 plugins bad" in the Software
Center. Could you please type the exact title of the package you are
attempting to install using the Software Center?
I'm sorry that you have encountered a problem such as this so early in
your transition to Ubuntu, but we appreciate your willingness to respond
and help resolve the issue.

Thank you for answering our questions. While we figure out how to file
this report, I would just like to let you know of a possible solution to
your current problem. If you go to
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/i386/gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-
multiverse/download you should be able to choose a link and download the
plugins as a .deb file. These files are similar to .exe in Windows; just
download it, double click it, and it should install just fine. I was
able to download the package onto my machine without a problem, so
hopefully this will allow you to get the plugins while we work on this
bug. Thanks for being so patient and working with us.

@Draycen,
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad* package do not depend on ubuntu-restricted-
extras in any way. ubuntu-restricted-extras is a meta package which
pulls lot of gstreamer plugin packages as well as Sun JRE package.
@John,
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad has a midi plugin which needs freepats package to
work properly. So when you try to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad the
freepats package is alo installed. The freepats package is huge in size (29
MB). This might be the reason the download appeared to be stuck at 5%. You can
bypass the installation of freepats package when installing gstreamer package
in following way.
In Synaptic go to Preferences -> General -> Marking Changes. There is a
checkbox 'Consider recommended packages as dependencies'. Disable this checkbox
and then try to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad package.
** Package changed: gst-plugins-bad-multiverse0.10 (Ubuntu) => gst-
plugins-bad0.10 (Ubuntu)

John, we may have figured out what is causing the issue. Could you
please see if the "ubuntu-restricted-extras" package is installed on
your machine? Installing that package may give your computer access to
the "gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad" package. The GStreamer plugins are not
included with Ubuntu by default due to licensing issues, but can be
installed after installing the "ubuntu-restricted-extras" package, which
contains some GStreamer plugins by default. After that package is
installed, you should be able to install the "gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad"

this will work so you won't have to use the .deb file I mentioned in the

I don't know if this helps or not .
When I try to use Realplayer I get a message saying that I

There seems to be no error in my RealPlayer installation
I just need extra software .
When I try and play using Rhytmbox I get a message saying

This plugin does not seem to exist .
I have also tried to install Banshee , this also hangs at 5% .

Hi ,
Thank You !
You were right . I changed server to the best one , and it
downloaded first time .
In case this happens to others , I'm in the UK and the best
server is in the Netherlands .
I am also using 3 mobile broadband , as this is all I have .
Thank you again , I have actually quite enjoyed solving
this problem . It was a good opportunity to learn about my
new OS .

Subject: [Bug 511632] Re: Cannot download gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
John, I'm sorry this is taking so long to resolve. I have a few more
questions for you so we can hopefully figure out the exact cause of the
problem.
1. Are you using a high-speed internet connection?
2. Are you using any kind of proxy for your internet?
3. Have you recently run the Update Manager or 'sudo apt-get update;
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' so your software is up-to-date? (If not, then
please do this first)
4. What servers did you try to download from before?
I also have another possible solution you can try:
If you go into the Software Center, then Edit -> Software Sources...,
you should get the same menu I had you pull up before. Could you select
"Other..." under "Download from:," but this time run "Select Best
Server" if you didn't before? This will cause your computer to try every
server and select the one with the best speeds (it might take a while if
your internet is slow). Then, you can try downloading the package again.
If that still doesn't work, then could you please try the
"astromirror.uchicago.edu" server under "United States"? Depending on
your location, this may cause slow downloads, but I have tried this
server personally and it has worked for me.
I know this is similar to what I had you try before, but the problem
seems to be with your network connection as opposed to a software issue
with either Software Center, Synaptic, or even the gstreamer0.10
-plugins-bad package. By trying this possible solution and answering my
questions, we will have a better idea of whether or not the problem is
with the servers or with your computer (or still potentially something
else).
Again, I apologize for all of this inconvenience. I will continue to
consult with other members of the BugSquad team so we can hopefully find
a solution for you soon, or at the very least get your bug heard.
Thanks
