Apparently those reporting the bug are unable to connect to one Ubuntu mirror, the one at us.archive.ubuntu.com.

It would be worthwhile for anyone experiencing this issue to try using a different mirror, in a different country, such as de.archive.ubuntu.com, and see whether that allows them to access the files they want.

I somewhat doubt this is a bug in ubuntu-manager. In particular, the file http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/Release.gpg really should exist on all mirrors, or something is badly wrong. It appears to exist on all mirrors I looked for it on... us, uk, de, fr and es.
