My PPAs don't work properly

In my Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS, whenever I do a
Code:
sudo apt-fast(or apt-get) update For the record: 1. I have upgraded my kernel lately (to 3.5.3 from http://www.upubuntu.com/) but that does not seem to be a problem as my older stable kernels gave me same kicks. 2. I have changed the "source" to "other" and selected "Choose best server" in Software center. This has not changed things before and after, but thought to mention it. Please help and thanks in advance. |
Thats because the repositories are not available at the addresses mentioned in the log.
You can try it by selecting a different server in the software sources. |

Looks like you manually added a lot of repos, edited the sources.list file.
The repos are no more Supported, and you will not get any updates from the repos. You should comment them from your sources.list file. |

Still no improvement. :( |
Go to SynapticPackage manager or Ubuntu Software Center. In the menu, you will find Software Sources.
In the Software Sources, you will find the Third Party APT repos you added. Just untick them(which are giving you errors) and do #apt-get update If you don't know which repos to disable, put the last lines of your /etc/apt/sources.list file here. |

From Synaptic Manger, I got the following while it is starting up: Quote:
Code:
sudo apt-fast update Quote:
Now what? :( P.S. The link I posted didn't work for me. That's the reason I posted it to show you. |
Below is the full file content of /etc/apt/sources.list
Code:
# deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 12.04 LTS _Precise Pangolin_ - Release amd64 (20120425)]/ dists/precise/main/binary-i386/ |
See post #12 before this.
I really have no idea. But you can try this and tell me if this works. Run the command Code:
# cd /etc/apt Code:
#sudo apt-get update |

And do apt-get update. See if this works first. |

You should have tried the alex-mieland pages in a browser. They indeed do not exist (404 not found). Either you entered the repo information in wrong or these repositories are dead. Either way, you should remove them by editing your /etc/sources.list. Do this by just removing every line that has alex-mieland in it.

In your early post, you have suggested to comment out the line containing'apt-fast'. I did so, but it's worth considering that apt-fast is faster than apt-get. - P.S. I found two files containing alex-mieland in /etc/apt/source.list.d . i deleted both. |
