Can't install Bastion/Amnesia from Humble Bundle 5 (GnuTLS recv error (-24))

Asked by dmiller309

I purchased the latest Humble Indie Bundle (bundle 5) which includes Amnesia and Bastion. The other games downloaded and installed fine when I clicked the link on the site which sent me to the Ubuntu Software Center, but Amnesia and Bastion fail to install. I get the following error message when I try to install Amnesia in the Ubuntu Software Center:
Failed to fetch https://private-ppa.launchpad.net/commercial-ppa-uploaders/amnesia/ubuntu/pool/main/a/amnesia/amnesia_1.2.1-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb GnuTLS recv error (-24): Decryption has failed.

Bastion doesn't work in the software center either, so I tried clearing the cache in Synaptic and installing Bastion from Synaptic. There are no other packages that need to be installed, just bastion, but it still fails to install:
W: Failed to fetch https://private-ppa.launchpad.net/commercial-ppa-uploaders/bastion/ubuntu/pool/main/b/bastion/bastion_1.0-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb
  GnuTLS recv error (-24): Decryption has failed.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 (64 bit). Should I try something, or is this a bug from a new feature that will be resolved by the wonderful developers at Canonical?

Hey there, I'm having this issue with Amnesia as well. I typed in your code and this is what was happening to me: http://i.imgur.com/w5RmJ.png

Neither Ubuntu Software Center, Update Manager, or Synaptic Package Manager is running, so I'm not really sure why it's not getting a lock on the directory. I've tried rebooting the entire system and only running terminal and I still get this error.

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 (32-bit) on an older HP Pavilion dv9000 with an Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU T5250 @ 1.50GHz × 2 with 2GB of RAM.

Any ideas?
