It's been a while for me, but if memory serves, edit your /etc/apt/sources.list or similar (could be /etc/sources.list, or even a file in /etc/sources.list.d or /etc/apt/sources.list.d). Remove the offending URL(s) from the file (or if you have a file in /etc/sources.list.d or whatever, just rm the file). Then save it, and apt-get update from there. Don't quote me 100% but I THINK that's right. It's been a few years since I used apt at all. :) --- Dan On Thu, Nov 7, 2013 at 10:28 AM, Russel Caldwell <[email protected]> wrote: > On Wed, Nov 6, 2013 at 9:37 PM, Charles Curley < > [email protected]> wrote: > > > On Wed, 6 Nov 2013 21:09:49 -0700 > > Russel Caldwell <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > I'm running an Ubuntu machine and it's giving me a error message > > > saying that the update information is outdated.
