I too, have problems with the "something wicked" bug. I cannot now update/upgrade browse or receive email;
I upgraded 8.04 to 10.04. As it turns out, a mistake! I have two disappointments--- 1. I believed that LTS would "work out of the box" & was stable 2. Some of the intended help above are a bit brief for a Ubuntu USER, as distinct from a techie. I tied the one about the visudo & sudoers, but with no success. I cannot write to sudoers, but keep getting extra files named .temp or .temp.1 etc. I use a router (#17 above) but even without router problem still exists. Changing the sites for updates from Australi to Main makes no difference. I would appreciate any kind soul writing either a fix or a workaround such that even a relative newcomer such as I am can understand it. (This means telling me when to use SUDO, when to REBOOT, where any fiile is located and so on! Some of us have NOT used GNU/Linux for years!) -- Apt has strange network errors when updating indexes. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574886 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
