Maybe my problem (with Precise) is not related to this one. After nine days without a successful update I changed my update server from de.archive.ubuntu.com to eo.archive.ubuntu.com. Now everything works fine again. Interestingly, when I display http://eo.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/source/ I see the same as with the German (de) server: no "Sources", only "Sources.bz2" and "Sources.gz". Still, here it works. I hope I am not depending on some legacy functionality that is going to go away on one server by one. It seems reasonable to download compressed information, and I have always wondered why the process of updating Update Manager's data takes so long. I think it could benefit a great deal from using compressed packages.
