Hi, 
still having problems with apt-get, removed the "au" from repositories,
and apt-get update went much smoother, only 1

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old
ones used instead.


Just ran update so don't want to do it again, am on dialup and it takes
28 minutes, and have done it 3 times now.
Still cannot install anything, tried scribus, bluefish, gftp k3b,
either they are missing some dependencies which cannot be installed, or
as below.

squareyes at here:~$ sudo apt-get install gftp

E: Couldn't find package gftp
Cannot see what I am doing wrong, any help very much appreciated
Take Care
