Why are you using archive.canonical.com ? it's archive.ubuntu.com

I had the same issue, not sure where I picked up archive.canonical.com in my software sources list.

Same problem here. I never touched my sources. This is what happens with a default update-manager -d.

You've upgraded from which version of Ubuntu ? and are you using third-party software like Automatix2 or something?

Changed in update-manager:

My three previous posts to this bug thread over the last approx. 30 hours (sent by e-mail in conventional fashion) have not been posted to the thread. I suspect a bug or a failure in Launchpad itself and have opened a bug for that as well.

I am attempting to upgrade from an up-to-date Kubuntu Feisty Fawn. I did use Automatix2 in the distant past. My recollection is that when I used update-manager -d to go from Edgy to Feisty that I handled directly all updates of drivers and non-free applications without resort to Automatix2. I am, however, using Trevino's Compiz Fusion repository.

I suspect that we are dealing here with nothing more than a one-line glitch in a script containing a wrong path (and/or) repository name.

Can anyone come to the rescue with a work-around?

I had same issue between 7.04 and 7.10, resolved by using the iso instead.

I also had used Automatix2 in the past..seems to be a recurring theme in these problems. Then again for a lot of people it is the first program they install so it could just be a coincidence.

I had the same issue. Removing http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial from the repositories solved the problem.
