apt-get still not working

[Fabio T. Leitao]

I had the same issue in the past, something o do with the way my ISP
worked...

If you are able to get to the repository web server, try: *sudo apt-get
update -o Acquire::http::No-Cache=True*

It worked for my, and is now a part of a script a run when I need to check
for upgrades... I call it gta (stands for Get Them All), you can try as a
script or simply writing every line

*leitao at amz:~$ cat /usr/local/bin/gta *
#!/bin/bash
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get check
sudo apt-get update -o Acquire::http::No-Cache=True
sudo apt-get -y autoremove
sudo apt-get -f -y install
sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -f -y install
sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get -f -y install
sudo apt-get -y autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get clean
