| GeoffSK | Hi, can i ask support type questions here? | 10:43 |
|---|---|---|
| jea | You can | 10:45 |
| jea | As to whether we can answer it or not is another question | 10:46 |
| GeoffSK | i am doing an apt-get update, and getting a lot of Failed to fetch on backports (i am 14.04). is that me? | 10:46 |
| jea | what mirror are you using? | 10:47 |
| GeoffSK | IP: 91.189.92.191 80 - australia i think | 10:47 |
| GeoffSK | au.archive.ubuntu.com | 10:47 |
| jea | right | 10:52 |
| jea | It is possible that the mirror is playing up. I haven't used backports recently to know | 10:52 |
| GeoffSK | that's what i am hoping. | 10:53 |
| jea | Have you had issues with other types? | 10:53 |
| jea | ie. not backports? | 10:53 |
| GeoffSK | it seems to be affecting things. i tried to install svn and same errors (though in backports) | 10:54 |
| GeoffSK | sorry not just back-ports. also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/IRC | 10:55 |
| GeoffSK | oops | 10:55 |
| GeoffSK | more like: Failed to fetch http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/apr-util/libaprutil1_1.5.3-1_amd64.deb | 10:55 |
| jea | hmm | 10:56 |
| jea | You could try switching to another Australian mirror to see if that fixes it | 10:57 |
| GeoffSK | or main server? | 10:57 |
| jea | au.archive.ubuntu.com is the same as mirror.aarnet.edu.au | 10:57 |
| jea | Yes, or the main server | 10:57 |
| jea | I normally find AARNet to be reliable, but every so often there can be issues | 10:57 |
| GeoffSK | ok, trying. | 10:57 |
| GeoffSK | are backports commonly used? | 10:58 |
| jea | I am not too sure sorry | 10:59 |
| GeoffSK | np | 10:59 |
| GeoffSK | hey presto, looks like you solved my problems. Thanks | 11:00 |
| jea | Good to hear. Now to see how long aarnet stays broken :/ | 11:03 |
| GeoffSK | i am sure it will be back tomorrow :) | 11:04 |
| GeoffSK | cya, thanks again. | 11:04 |
| jea | you are welcome | 11:04 |
| jea | cya | 11:04 |
