Mint update "could not refresh the list of packages"
I am sorry if this has been addressed already, but I am having trouble applying some of the other threads to my situation. I have an "X" on my mintupdate icon and hovering over it says it couldn't refresh the list of packages. I have added a few repositories at times but I couldn't tell you what was added. Anyway, here is the message I am getting so I hope this helps:

Re: Mint update "could not refresh the list of packages"
Hi!
Looks like that ppa only covers jaunty, karmic and lucid (if you open the link in a browser you can back up the tree until you find something)
What package are you looking for?

Re: Mint update "could not refresh the list of packages"
Thanks, that made since. But then I am not receiving updates to ubuntuone, right? I guess I really wasn't anyway, but do I need to use a different repository?
Re: Mint update "could not refresh the list of packages"
If you need the latest of the ubuntuone stuff, probably.toddwagg wrote:but do I need to use a different repository?
Most of these packages, if not all, are present in the oneiric and oneiric-updates repositories though. For just installing the ubuntuone-client and support packages I don't think you need a ppa. Are you following a tutorial?
Re: Mint update "could not refresh the list of packages"
No tutorial, just started with Ubuntu a few years back and had Ubuntu One for a while. I just realized it was also in my Mint repositories (or maybe just inherited from Ubuntu) so I installed it under Lisa. Just wanted another "dropbox"
Re: Mint update "could not refresh the list of packages"
I have started getting this error recently, not sure what the deal is... What i see is the "could not refresh the list of packages", and underneath it shows the following at the moment.
Any ideas?

UPDATE###poppler-utils###0.20.4-0ubuntu1.1###0.20.4-0ubuntu1###161098###poppler###Poppler is a PDF rendering library based on Xpdf PDF viewer.

UPDATE###memtest86+###4.20-1.1ubuntu2.1###4.20-1.1ubuntu2###285292###memtest86+###Memtest86+ scans your RAM for errors.
This tester runs independently of any OS - it is run at computer boot-up, so that it can test *all* of your memory. You may want to look at `memtester', which allows to test your memory within Linux, but this one won't be able to test your whole RAM.
It can output a list of bad RAM regions usable by the BadRAM kernel patch, so that you can still use your old RAM with one or two bad bits.
Memtest86+ is based on memtest86 3.0, and adds support for recent hardware, as well as a number of general-purpose improvements, including many patches to memtest86 available from various sources.
Both memtest86 and memtest86+ are being worked on in parallel.

Re: Mint update "could not refresh the list of packages"
It's because your repositories are not named properly. It says "nadia" and it should say "oneiric" instead. Edit your sources.list file and change every instance of http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/nadia* into http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/oneiric*. Then run sudo apt-get update. You shouldn't get those errors anymore.beachgardener wrote:i get this too, it goes on to update, as well as error after the update

In your case you need to go to the /etc/apt/sources.list file and remove the techm3 ppa repository it is no longer active.old-boy wrote:I have the same problem as well.

you'll have to do it as root.
Or you can do it with this command
Code: Select all
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:whatever/ppa

Please be informed that I can't perform any "sudo apt-get update" on my system (linux mint 18 cinnamon 64 bit) although I have Internet connectivity and can ping google's dns from a terminal window with success. The output that I'm getting is the following:
