    adept package problem

    I'm kind of confused about this error message in adept and have tried uncommenting lines in /etc/apt/sources.list unsuccessfully. Why is the system not letting me update?

    "There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading packages or the commit would break packages."

    Using # apt-get install or # apt-get update was no better: it gave me:

    Reading package lists... Done
    E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

    Sorry if this seems trivial.... but I'm new to Kubuntu.

    Checkmait,

    at first sight, this looks to me as if your network were "down and out" ... you may check this first, e.g. by trying to surf the web with Firefox - as long as this fails, as I dare to hypothesize, there will be not get in apt, so to speak :P

    The repository server itself seems to be "up and running":

    Code:

      I wish that were the case since that's easier to fix, but considering I was able to post here and this:

      it seems unlikely my network was down. Also, as much as I'd like to surf the net with Firefox, I have not been able to build it in yet.....

        Your sources differ greatly from mine.

        Mine all start with
        deb

        and yours all start with
        lgn

        Is this maybe deb in another launage? I don't know if this is helpful, but I'll post my sources.list. You could back up yours and give mine a try maybe and see  if it works?

        Code:
        ## Add comments (##) in front of any line to remove it from being checked.

          Re: adept package problem

          I tried using your sources.list and commenting out my own, but the same problem occurred.
          This was part of my original sources.list file.

          ## Line commented out by installer because it failed to verify:
          ##deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-security main restricted
          ## Line commented out by installer because it failed to verify:
          ##deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-security main restricted
          ##deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-security universe
          ##deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-security universe


          Could this have anything to do with it? If so, how can I fix it?

            Never mind this, I updated to Edgy and everything works just fine.

            But thanx for the help anyway.
