Hi!
Where do you see this error message? In the system tray? This might be
a message emitted by Apper.
Why can the sources not be fetched? Is there a problem with the
server, or aren't you connected to the internet? Usually, PK checks
for a working network connection before refreshing sources.
If you want to disable the automatic update checks, you can simply do
that in Apper's settings.
Cheers,
Matthias
