When I try to update via Software Updater, I am shown this error: Requires installation of untrusted packages

Of course, one would normally fix this with (as I have previously asked about here) :

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

However, this simply produces its own errors:

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

I thought this might be related to some sort of connectivity issue, but I get the same error irrespective of whether my VPN is running or not... Not to mention the fact that everything else has no connectivity issues.

Any help would be appreciated...

By the way, here is the full Terminal spiel:

    Why are you mixing multiple Ubuntu releases? I saw entries for Raring and Trusty. – John Scott Sep 20 '15 at 01:10
  • I don't even know why they are there... This particular computer was a Ubuntu 14.04 LTS ("Trusty Tahr") setup from the start; it's never run anything else.

    Should I remove those entries?

     – Gregory Opera Sep 21 '15 at 09:24
  • Absolutely. You should change them to say Trusty, but if that gives errors you should remove it altogether. – John Scott Sep 21 '15 at 20:20

http://au.archive.ubuntu.com is down and for some wacky reason runs on a redhat server :)

Switch to a different mirror for now or try again later.

  • Search for "software" in your dash and click on Software & Updates.

  • Click on the drop-down menu for Download From and select other.

  • Then, click on select best server to automatically select the best server or you can just click on main server instead but it probably won't be as fast.

You can contact the maintainer of the mirror here http://aarnet.edu.au/contact-us/enquiry-and-feedback-form to let them know the repo is down.

UPDATE:

http://au.archive.ubuntu.com appears to be back up again and Software Updater should run ok.

You could try this:

enter the terminal
and type this: sudo bash
gedit /etc/atp/sources.list

and then do this

put ## in front of src http://au.archive.ubuntu.com etc..

and you might could update again, and it might work fine this way.
