Title:
  software-center crashed with IOError in write(): [Errno 22] invalid
  mode ('w') or filename: '/home/ubuntu/.config/software-
  center/softwarecenter.cfg.new'

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  Software center cannot download any extra packages even though am connected to the internet and can surf all sites through Firefox. 
  Whenever I try to add any extra package, it says "Cannot refresh list" and then crashes. I am in LiveCD mode(using a pendrive + Unetbootin).
