Failed to apt-get update
« on: February 23, 2008, 03:03:37 am »
I keep getting this at the end of an apt-get update command
Code: [Select]
Failed to fetch http://deb.linuxmce.com/ubuntu/dists/20dev_ubuntu/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz 302 Found
Failed to fetch http://linuxmce.com/ubuntu/./Packages.gz 302 Found
Reading package lists... Done
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.


here is my /etc/apt/sources.list
Code: [Select]
deb file:/usr/pluto/deb-cache/ ./
deb http://gulus.USherbrooke.ca/ubuntu/ gutsy  main restricted multiverse universe
deb http://gulus.USherbrooke.ca/ubuntu/ gutsy-security  main restricted multiverse universe
deb http://gulus.USherbrooke.ca/ubuntu/ gutsy-updates  main restricted multiverse universe
deb http://linuxmce.com/ubuntu/ ./
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy  main universe multiverse
deb http://deb.linuxmce.com/ubuntu/ 20dev_ubuntu  main

Is there something wrong with my install?

I want to install some packages. (carefully).. i read in the forums here that i just have to fix my sources.list and apt-get update. what am i doing wrong? my sources.list files looks okay.. but apt-get update shows failed errors and i still can't install any packages.

You can either comment the matching sources out (in the sources.list file) as they are obviously not being used at the moment, or you can simply ignore those warnings.
