Ετικέτα: List of Ubuntu releases (Σελίδα 1 από 2)

If during an update in either Linux Mint or Ubuntu you get error messages from apt, about failing to fetch data from the GETDEB repository (which happens a lot, I’m afraid), here’s a brilliant solution I found at askubuntu.com. Use a mirror!

Here are the steps:

1. Comment out your existing sources for GETDEB

2. Add the following sources instead:

deb http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/getdeb/ubuntu quantal-getdeb apps
deb-src http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/getdeb/ubuntu quantal-getdeb apps

Replace “quantal” with your edition if necessary; also, you can add the games repo just by repeating the above two lines with “games” in the end instead of “apps”.

1. Import the mirror’s security key:

sudo apt-key adv –recv-keys –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com A8A515F046D7E7CF

1. Refresh your sources and you’re done:

sudo apt-get update
