You have been subscribed to a public bug: Adept says this: The APT Database could not be opened! This may be caused by incorrect APT configuration or some similar problem. Try running apt-setup and apt-get update in terminal and see if it helps to resolve the problem.
I DID try running apt-get update, but when I try apt-setup, I get this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# apt-setup bash: apt-setup: command not found apt says this: Hit http://za.archive.ubuntu.com feisty-updates/restricted Sources Hit http://za.archive.ubuntu.com feisty-updates/multiverse Packages Err http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security Release.gpg Could not connect to security.ubuntu.com:80 (91.189.88.31), connection timed out Ign http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security/main Translation-en_US Ign http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security/restricted Translation-en_US Ign http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security/multiverse Translation-en_US Fetched 7B in 2m24s (0B/s) Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-security/Release.gpg Could not connect to security.ubuntu.com:80 (91.189.88.31), connection timed out Reading package lists...
