Public bug reported: Ever Since I updated this morning, an red warning symbol has appeared in my system tray intermittently, telling me that I need to check for updates because of a problem. When I do attempt the check, I get the following message :
Failed to download repository information. Check your internet connection. W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementaryart/elementarydesktop/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/source/Sources 404 Not Found , W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementaryart/elementarydesktop/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found , W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementaryart/elementarydesktop/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found , E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. The red symbol has come and gone throughout the day, but the update check has continued to fail. I have changed nothing manually, and should add that my internet connection has been absolutely fine. I noticed when I visited one of the missing repositories in my browser that older versions of the repository , from oneric and back, were there but "precise" was missing. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1073439 Title: Checking for updates fails, causing red warning symbol to appear in tray To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1073439/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
