Cannot update Ubuntu 9.04 distro


When the update manager pops-up with a window informing of updates
I choose install with the updates checked, I am asked for my password
and subsequently the update is not carried and the window with the update list reappears.
When i use apt-get update the process is carried out correctly.
why i do not understand, can you help ?

Hi greek45, can you copy & paste the output of:

Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
This will help us troubleshoot the problem.
