I'd just edit the sources.list and stick a "#" in front of the line for any mirror that doesn't work.
vi /etc/apt/sources.list
Hello Everone,
I was wondering if there was a way to automaticly remove bad apt.sources from my list and replace it with a working mirror?
I am asking becuse when I run apt-get update apt fails to connect to some mirriors. Or do I just have to do this manually? :I have installed both apt-spy & apt-setup
Thanks very much![]()

Thanks arkaine23,
I'll give that a shot![]()
I'd use mc (Midnight Commander) instead of vi editorOriginally Posted by arkaine23

I prefer nano, but removing the failed apt sources did the trick![]()
Thanks again
