Hello again,

there's gotta be something wrong with your /etc/apt/sources.list file, so
can you post it here?

Alternatively, here's mine:

jaska at bowmore:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
# See http://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes for how to upgrade to

Now I can't recall and am too lazy to check whether all the components
listed above were already for feisty (partner comes to mind), but you should
be pretty much all set if you copy that and change gusty to feisty, with a
simple sed command for instance:

# sed -i s/gutsy/feisty/g /etc/apt/sources.list

Back up the file first and all the other common disclaimers go here. :)
