Yes, but 8.04 is just so conservative in comparison...
I sort of understand why they do these conservative LTS releases, but
I find them stifling... and, to be honest, I've not really had any
great issues with 8.10 up to now. In fact, it's been a lot easier
than previous alphas and betas that I'v

reboot thing... and then I realised my Skype (medibuntu) had
disappeared... like, completely.
"apt-get install skype", and it came back. Got no idea why, but it would

I upgraded to Intrepid several weeks back, sometime late September -
this was just a standard daily update. So now idea why it went wrong

Not relating to the errors (since other people have addressed those).
are you upgrading *to* Intrepid, or just keeping an intrepid machine up

while before I can report back, lol...

I'd suggest it's one of two things:
1) Intrepid hasn't reached your mirror yet.
2) You sources are out of date.
Have you tried running
apt-get update
as suggested? I
