Lately, when I update, the process sticks on get deb:

[Connecting to archive.getdeb.net (144.76.200.19)]

The site - http://getdeb.net/ - times out and the cloudflare message is in no way helpful.

Does anyone know why this repo and site are down? or perhaps anything else about it?

Thanks.

Down For Everyone Or Just Me website reports that the http://getdeb.net/ website is down for everyone. There may be an archive that contains the a .deb file for the package that you want to install or if not you can search for the source code of the package in GitHub and compile it.

    Thanks for the reply, but my inquiry doesn't concern a specific package or program .

    I have a decade on Linux, I'm good for instructions on how/where - but thank you for the offer.

    I'm wondering about getdeb specifically and, further to that, why it's being included as a repo if it's always down - I've seen it down a number of times in the past few months - it's lacking reliability.

    @SedAwk GetDeb is not included by default in any official Ubuntu flavor. –  Jul 13 '17 at 12:04
