Has a repository been eliminated?

This one:

http://us.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages

The repository itself should be up (may have been down temporarily), but I have heard that the U.S. mirror has been problematic of late.

I'd suggest you switch to the main server if you are having problems (just remove the 'us' suffix from archive.ubuntu.com)

More explicitly, the 'universe' entry in /etc/apt/sources.list for the U.S. mirrors would look like:


deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe
The main server would be:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe
Just edit for whichever of main, restricted, universe, or multiverse repositories you would like to add.

Thanks! I did as you explained in your reply and I was able to update everything.

the 'universe' entry in fstab for the U.S. mirrors would look like:

just to make sure for the total newbies. it is not fstab, it is /etc/apt/sources.list

Ouch, didn't realize I did that...:-# edited it to what it should be.
Thanks for pointing it out.
