The package information was last updated 84 days ago?

[Dáire Fagan]

The package information is up to date.

The package information was last updated 84 days ago.

Should this concern me, and how do I remedy it? Some updates do install regularly, but I do not understand what 84 day old package information Update Manager is referencing.

When in Update Manager I try to check for new updates it tells me:

Failed to download repository information

Check your Internet connection.

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

If upon reading this you know the solution, please make me aware of it and any complete commands I need to enter into terminal if necessary.

Try booting the machine and run

sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

I rebooted and logged into X/Gnome, you didn't mean bring up a terminal before logging into X, right? If you did please tell me what the key is to do so.

Those PPAs do not have a repository for Maverick

See Here
and Here

so remove them from your sources.list.

Or they might be located in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory.

Open Software Sources and un-tick them as a source.

Good Luck

Good, please mark the thread 'solved'.

My bad, actually looked for that option earlier but must have missed it.
