    Happy Festivus and happy New Years Eve!

    I have ran

    apt-get update

    command and I am getting this error:
    ...
    ...

    W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

    Of course, after running the 'apt-get update' command, as the error
    suggested, I get the same message. I did just run it again and it fixed it.
    Any idea how this happens?

    thanks.
