I'm not really sure what I did to mess this up but I just went to update and I got this message
E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/http could not be found.
Any help would be appreciated

ryan_coplea; Hi !

As a start, does that file exist ?


ls -la /usr/lib/apt/methods/http

It should:


sysop@1304mini:~$ ls -la /usr/lib/apt/methods/http
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 68928 Sep 4 18:18 /usr/lib/apt/methods/http
sysop@1304mini:~$
