I have been getting some "failure to fetch" errors when I try to do updates in ubuntu 10.04. I checked the forum threads, and this error seems to be a problem in the package sources list every time, but it seems different for everyone. I haven't been able to see anything in my sources list that I can immediately identify as "wrong".
I tried upgrading to 10.10, in the hopes that it would just get rid of unnecessary old packages, but that is failing too.
Here is my sources list:
Here is the 10.10 upgrade error message:Code:# deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ - Release i386 (20090420.1)]/ jaunty main restricted # See http://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes for how to upgrade to # newer versions of the distribution. deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restricted deb-src http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restricted ## Major bug fix updates produced after the final release of the ## distribution. deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates main restricted deb-src http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates main restricted ## N.B. software from this repository is ENTIRELY UNSUPPORTED by the Ubuntu ## team.
