A minor success!

This morning started out like any other: I got up and walked over to my computer to check on a download that I left up all night. Having received this “download” I began to test whether or not I would be able to open it—this download happened to be a movie from a private server. This movie has subtitles that are supposed to play with the movie, but when I loaded it up nothing happened. I thought there might be a problem with the player, so I opened up Add/Remove and nothing was there. I was puzzled to say the least; and, when I say nothing I mean not one single installed application was available and no knew ones where listed either. I took my intriguing problem to Ubuntu forums and as I expected the problem was quite simple: all I had to do was reinstall the app. I thought that I might post the code here just to look cool.

sudo apt-get remove gnome-app-install
sudo apt-get install gnome-app-install apturl ubufox ubuntu-desktop

And here is the link to the site:
