I have upgraded to ubuntu 10.04 and so<br>I reinstalled texlive-2009. I have problems updating.<br>Since there was a problem in updating using the original gui,<br>I updated it by downloading and installing a fresh version of tlmgr using the <br>
shell file given in the tex repository. The problems still persist.<br>If I try to set the remote repository using gui,<br>I get the following error message:<br>*************************<br>Use of uninitialized value $defaults{"backupdir"} in string ne at /opt/texlive/2009/texmf/scripts/texlive/<a href="http://tlmgrgui.pl">tlmgrgui.pl</a> line 1112.<br>

The proxy server doesn't seem to be a problem. Aptitude is able to download <br>debian packages. <br>What is the solution this problem?<br>Best,<br>S. Venkataraman<br>
