http://ppa.launchpad.net/quickly/ppa/ubuntu/dists -> there's no maverick version

http://ppa.launchpad.net/nanny/ppa/ubuntu/dists -> there's no maverick version

To fix this:

  • Applications > Sofware Center,
  • Edit > Sofware sources...,
  • Enter your password,
  • Go to the 'Other Software' tab, and
  • Edit the PPAs for Quickly and Nanny so the 'Distribution' field is 'karmic'.

Also, there's a hash sum mismatch for the maverick-security repo (can be caused by corrupted downloads, etc.), which should be fixed by simply running apt-get update again.

Run sudo apt-get update in terminal and then try reinstalling the package again.
