Probably it's a network problem.

Please try to update later, or change APT mirror.

Additional:

When i change mirror in adept manager, combobox "Server for update:" has value "Other..." and crash as i write above.
And i try run adept one more, now combobox "Server for update:" have value "mirror.yandex.ru" and don't crash after Upgrade Version -> Next.

Now upgrade has run without failing... I don't understand - file Release from official server, ans from mirror.yandex.ru both acceptable by wget, why adept return error (when i used official server)?

, E:Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

THIS IS BUG OF ADEPT, not dependes of mirror!

Thanks for oyur bugreport.

This looks like a typo in your sources.list "mai*l*" instead of "main". Please correct that and see if that fixes the problem.

Changed in update-manager:
assignee:	nobody → mvo
status:	New → Incomplete

Now all it's right.
I don't understand... I use adept about three months without change /etc/apt/sources.list, and don't got errors... Adept incorrect update /etc/apt/sources.list? Or it's my error? I absolutely sure - i didn't change /etc/apt/sources.list.

But in any case - adept don't crash in this scenario. And adept don't crash when i change mirror and run update without restart.

Thanks for your hint!

#10

Thanks for confirming that the typo fix made it work. I have little experience with adept, I will reassign to it because:
a) it should not crash
b) if the typo was in the sources.list it should have showed you a warning about it

I reassign to adept
