tzdata won't upgrade (tzdata_2008h)

Bug Description

Binary package hint: tzdata

It looks like something's wrong with either the us.archive.ubuntu.com server or Ubuntu itself.

The system is attempting to perform a distribution upgrade, and it fails because tzdata can't be found on the server.

Here's the reported message:

Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/tzdata/tzdata_2008h-0ubuntu0.8.04_all.deb 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.46 80]

That file is not present on the us.archive.ubuntu.com serve. This one is however:
tzdata_2008h-0ubuntu0.8.04.1_all.deb

Looks like someone forgot to tack on the ".1" in the update list somewhere.

I've manually checked the packages list for that repository, and it seems ok. Do you have the same problem after doing "sudo apt-get update"?

Thanks, that fixed it. Shouldn't the auto-updater be doing the apt-get
update on its own?

Thanks,
Jason

I have now the problem that tzdata cannot upgrade on 3 different PC's with Lucid.
Yesterday it fails on a complete new installation with I386.
Now there is no update possible on this machines, because this package is blocking everything!

Please don't reopen old bugs. The other bug you submitted is already assigned to the correct package (it is only the ubuntu-translations task which is invalid)
