Title:
update-manager should handle failed package list updates
Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
At some point last week update-manager failed to upgrade the package
list. Now it tells my package information has been updated last 7 days
ago. When pressing the "Check" (for updates) button the following
error message is shown:
W:Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/oneiric-proposed/main/binary-i386/Packages 416 Requested Range Not Satisfiable [IP: 141.30.13.30 80]
, E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
Now I know, that I can safely clean the /var/lib/apt/lists/ folder to
solve that problem, but to avoid non-technical users being prevented
from installing security updates, update-manager should do this
cleanup automatically.
