13.10aptupdates

I recently install Ubuntu 13.10, but I had several difficulties on installing several programs from 'Ubuntu Software Center'. I tried to update the repositories but I get the follow result:

I want to install Seaview, Dropbox, Terminator and the IDLE of python 2.7, but I can't since I get 'There isn't a software package called <program to install> in your current software sources' or 'Available from the "multiverse" source. However, for this last one, when I do click over "Use this Source" nothing happens.

I need help. Tx to all.

Seems like you can't connect via ipv6, try to disable ipv6 first via network manager ofr temporary or editing sysctl for temporary

sudo vim /etc/sysctl.conf

press i, add this values

net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1

press esc then press :wq
