I am trying to download package sources for all the installed packages in 14.04.2 release version. I tried the method described here ... How to download the source packages for all installed packages? It downloaded most of the packages (for the Desktop) but is not able to download about 72 packages, no matter how many times I try. Any help is appreciated. I can post the packages which are failing to download.

Thanks in advance.

  • Please add the output of ./getsource.sh to the question – kos Mar 19 '15 at 06:03
  • We need to see some of the very first error messages in the process. Can you grab the text and post it, or do a screen caption of the errors and post it here at the bottom of your original message? – Bulrush Mar 19 '15 at 12:35

Try cleaning up your apt-cache and running any updates:

sudo apt-get clean 
sudo apt-get update   
sudo apt-get upgrade

If you still have issues, then change your repo mirror: Open “Update Manager”, then click Settings -> Ubuntu Software tab, then select Other... from the Download from and click the Select Best Server button. Now try updating/upgrading again.
