Follow this link to get a lot of cool things... I am quoting a bit which will help to update the repository and solve the installation problem.

First of all, lets make Ubuntu “see” more packages. Go to the
terminal and edit your sources.list with :

Code:
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Here is the content of my sources.list which I think is quite
complete to have all the necessary applications you could ever need. So
delete the whole content of your sources list and replace it with the
content of mine
Save it. Now import the necessary repositories keys to avoid
“aptitude” crying about some missing keys, go to the terminal and type:

Code:
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com DCF9F87B6DFBCBAE F9A2F76A9D1A0061 A040830F7FAC5991 2EBC26B60C5A2783

Get your system up to date with :

Code:
sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade

Now all your programs will run on the last version.
