Please run: sudo apt-get update -o Debug::pkgAcquire::Worker=1 2>&1 | tee /tmp/apt-1236258-update-with-debug.log and attach the resulting /tmp/apt-1236258-update-with-debug.log to the bugreport. Mentioning the exact sources.list line you are using to configure the mirror would help to.
Its a rather obscure error, I at least haven't seen it so far in my few years around apt, so mention any APT-configuration you have changed. Also, check that the packages 'apt', 'libapt-pkg4.12' and 'libapt- inst1.5' have the same version. Oh, and don't install debian packages for key software like APT, in this very case its the same team and not that many ubuntu-specific patches applied (which aren't critical), but its not a good idea in general. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1236258 Title: using apt-get gives "E: Method gave invalid 200 URI Start message" for every repository To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1236258/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
