Only the front-end is down, so you can add a temporary entry in your /etc/hosts pointing to the medibuntu back-end until the front-end (packages.medibuntu.org) is back online in a few days. I will outline this process step-by-step for any who may be experiencing this issue & are not familiar with the process. To add this temporary entry to your hosts file simply do the following: 1. Open a terminal window 2. Type "sudo gedit /etc/hosts" (without the quotes) & press enter. This will display your hosts file. 3. Add "88.191.101.8 packages.medibuntu.org" (without the quotes) to a new line in your hosts file. 4. Save & close your hosts file. 5. Reload/ refresh your package list by typing "sudo apt-get update" (without the quotes) from a terminal window or by opening Update Manager & clicking on the "check" button. You should now be able to access packages from the medibuntu repository. Please note that you should remove this temporary entry in a few days after the medibuntu front-end issue has been resolved. You can monitor this issue at the following bug report to find out when this issue has been resolved. Please do not add unnecessary noise to the bug report. If you wish to show that this issue also affects you, please use the "Does this bug affect you" facility at the top of the bug report. The medibuntu maintainer is aware of the issue & the issue is currently being worked on. https://bugs.launchpad.net/medibuntu/+bug/565810 I will also send an update to this list once the front-end is back up to remind anyone who has performed this temporary work-around to delete this entry from their /etc/hosts file.
