Comment 11 for bug 1430011

Hello everyone. I am a newbie to the Linux community and I've been trying to update/upgrade my Xenial (16.04) distro all to no avail. I've read several posts on this issue and landing on this page has finally made me decided that my 'Unable to fetch archives' error is certainly a bug. I'm from Nigeria and every time I try the apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade etc features, I change to the best server and again to main server but it just seem to be wasting data giving me the same kind of error even after purge and clean commands. Please, if a baackport is all that will work please I need one and a full guide to getting this error eradicated using this backport. Thanks
