apt-get totally not working Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Question

apt-get always fails when I try anything. I can't install, remove, update, upgrade and even dist-upgrade. When I try sudo apt-get update I got this message :

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

apt-get install

E: Unmet dependencies.

apt-get upgrade :

Solution

Open software and updates other software tab Untick any repository you dont think should be their like if wine is still their even after you uninstalled it or you dont need the repo (be careful dont delete just untick ,just in case you need it again for some software again sometime in future) close it ,it will ask for refresh cancel it

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install  -f

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

you can comment out repositorys in terminal also just edit the file

sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list

and comment the repos you don't need

I already made a quick search for the best package manager and it seems to be aptitude the problem is I must use the "apt-get install" command to install it. I could not find the .deb package avialable for download immediately

[Houssem BenHassen]

It is impossible for me to even open software and updates whenever I try to I got the "System problem detected" message

@HoussemBenHassen did it work?

[Dominic Motuka]

@HoussemBenHassenAs part of its operation, Apt uses a file that lists the 'sources' from which packages can be obtained. This file is /etc/apt/sources.list. The entries in this file normally follow this format deb http://site.example.com/debian distribution component1 component2 component3 and deb-src http://site.example.com/debian distribution component1 component2 component3

[Houssem BenHassen]

here are some entries from my sources.list file deb mirrorservice.org/sites/archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-backports main restricted universe multiverse deb-src mirrorservice.org/sites/archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-backports main restricted universe multiverse

[Shantanu Bedajna]

same can be done by just editing a file i mentioned in the edited question
