Got that one too, ;) it means that you can't look for / receive updates for xbmc at the moment, the server is not responding. I will say: not important

Here's what I did, since 2.6/2.7 are Lucid and not Karmic I changed the xbmc PPA from Karmic to Lucid

First to remove the Karmic xbmc ppa
As always be careful with any command that has rm since it is going to remove something!!!
Use copy and paste to prevent typos

Code: Select all
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc*

Then to add the Lucid xbmc ppa
Code: Select all
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa

Update apt
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update

Upgrade if one is available
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get upgrade

If it says it will remove a lot of things (which it shouldn't) cancel and use update manager instead.
System > Administration > Update Manager

Hello hotrod.

The issue is very simple to understand.
It say that in this point of time the servers are down for workaround the servers,
Update packages and so on.
Try tomorrow or the next day , the servers will be up,and you can update/upgrade your machine.

Try browsing to
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/
Right click > Scripts > Browse as root
Select the team-xbmc lists and delete them then run
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update

the message should be gone then run the rest (the names might be different since I had already done it and I no longer have them to make sure they were right)
Let me know if the names are different so I can adjust the command.

Then to add the Lucid xbmc ppa
Code: Select all
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa

Update apt
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update

Upgrade if one is available
Code: Select all

There is a good guide here by Blackwolf that might help with gpg errors as well

Admin-Amir may be right as well.

I did exactly what you wrote:
Right click > Scripts > Browse as root
Select the team-xbmc lists and delete them then run
There's nothing there.

Then like Admin-Amir said it must be down right now. Even after changing it to Lucid I have yet to get an update from that PPA. But the error should be gone and it's set to lucid now.
