problem downloading updates with Adept

[harys]

hi i've clicked on the notification icon for updates on my kde,where there were a pop up message saying that there are 102 updates packages available, and then selected fetch list of updates. when it came to click on apply changes i got an error message :" There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages".
i also have the same message when i try for example to install a package like libgtk2.0-0. in another word i'm not able to download packages via internet.how can i make adept or apt via konsole to be aware of my connection. i previously connected via a proxy and now i'm connected directly on the internet and i'm writing this from konqueror browser.

thanks for any help.

What is it that you are trying to install/upgrade?

Please post the results of the following in the command line:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install <name_of_package_you_are_trying_to_install>

I had this the other day - I think one of the packages was broken for a short while.

Perhaps harys no longer has this problem.
