I have a strange problem when updating my system with apt-get. For example xine-ui installation fails always even I tried many different sources.lists from this forum.

Xine-ui

I see you're using Ubuntu. Instead of xine-ui, try gxine (GUI for xine under Gnome)

I'm getting the same thing.

Thanks for answer, but there are still problem with repository.

Ubuntu_demon's source.list have been under test, but still there are some fetch failures (see second code sentence).

Ubuntu_Demons recommended sources.list is here with instructions, it should be quite reliable. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=92672

I tried Automatix, which should solve most of the noob problems but it caused a probably the lock problem which is now solved. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66563&highlight=automatix

FIXED: gxine installation fails due of lock problem


$ sudo apt-get gxine
E: Invalid operation gxine
$ sudo apt-get install gxine
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?

Lock problem fixed with following commands (hopefully correct): sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock sudo dpkg --configure -a

gxine installation fails due of "Couldn't stat source package list http://archive.ubuntu.com breezy/main Packages

This drives me nuts, sources.list is in order but the problem still exists. I have been trying to solve this problem now for a week every day. What is the root reason?

Pff, this was a hard one to solve! Probably the root reason was faulty file at /var/lib/apt/lists/partial folder. However solution was to remove all the files from these two folders and then just do the normal apt-get stuff.

cd /var/lib/apt/lists sudo rm * -f cd partial sudo rm * -f sudo apt-get update

mEtho : try my sources.list

$sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

$sudo apt-get update

if there are still errors post them.(it's possible but unlikely that you need to do the same as Smaskens)
