Suddenly since the last two days I am not able to install from Synaptic or apt with the error of broken packages.
I ran sudo apt-get update and got the following at the end. This I used to get earlier also and I just used to ignore it, because my packages were getting updated I was geting list of available upgrades from these packages.

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
But when I tried to install something (dropbox plugin ) I get the following.
sudo apt-get install unity-dropbox-share
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
unity-dropbox-share : Depends: nautilus-dropbox but it is not installable
Depends: dropbox-index but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
The broken filter is of no help and I have googled a lot on this but of no use.
I get this error when I try to update from Synaptic
Could not download all repository indexes
The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct.
