Brian: I first did a general 6.06 upgrade to make sure that I had the latest code.
I then did the wget, which was successful. The next step did not work as you wrote the command, that is - bzip2 Packages.bz2 gives an error message that Packages is already in the compressed mode. The correct command is bunzip2 or bzip2 -d to uncompress Packages.bz2 to Packages. I tried bunzip2 - which was successful. I reran gksu "update-manager -c" with the updated 6.06 system and got the same error message as before. I am not a linux expert, but am guessing that the update-manager script is using bzip2 where it should be using bunzip2. Let me know what other things you would like me to try.
