Solved: Failed updates

Post by Adenitz »

Hello,
I have notification that updates are available, but when trying to install I get error messages that some update packages cannot be fetched. The details are given in the attached picture. There are more failed to fetch examples, but because of the size of attached files, I have placed just one part.
System info is the following:

Code: Select all

System:
  Kernel: 5.15.0-97-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 11.4.0 Desktop: Cinnamon 6.0.4
    tk: GTK 3.24.33 wm: muffin vt: 7 dm: LightDM 1.30.0 Distro: Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia
    base: Ubuntu 22.04 jammy

Try another mirror server. Or wait until your current mirror has been synchronized.

Hi Pjotr,
how to change mirror? Do I need to edit some source list files?

It's very easy. From the menu, launch Software Sources.
