    I am trying to uninstall software center for ubuntu oneric using the command sudo apt-get remove software center and get this as result

    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree       
    Reading state information... Done
    E: Unable to locate package software
    E: Unable to locate package center
    

    I did it once and got it fixed but now it does't work. I have an issue with the software center it keeps on repeatedly giving message saying send error.
