When trying to update my repos, it gets hung up and gives me this message:

Failed to fetch http://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/debian/dists/lsb3.2/Release  
Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

How can I remove this from trying to update when i sudo apt-get update?

Thanks

#2

Sounds like the openprinting source is having issues. It could be server problem on their side. I suggest you email them and let them know.

#3

How would I just remove this from the update list though?

#4

You mean remove openprinting-ppds-extra package from your system? If it's that:``` sudo apt-get remove openprinting-ppds-extra

#5

thanks but that didn't work. Still get this when i sudo apt-get update

cat /etc/apt/sources.list
