[Qgis-user] QGIS install fail on Ubuntu 12.04

In general, the error messages are generated upon launch of QGIS. I cannot
even get to a point where I have the option of installing plugins. There is
no option to "fetch python plugins."

Unfortunately the permission change has produced no change in results.
