Similar errors here since yesterday. There are alternative repos, if
anyone can post what is current while this error remains.
Now the forum is disabled, it is especially difficult for new users, to
trawl back through a mailing list for old posts to get info; experienced
users can deal with it, could be a real showstopper for others
In my Wheezy install this buggers apt completely (Debian packages cannot
be installed either) till Trinity is disabled, /var/apt/lists is deleted
and apt-get update rerun, that's what you might need to do till this
gets fixed.

I just got word of this problem now; it appears to be a DNS issue, however
the DNS configuration of the Trinity web services has not been touched in
several months, leading me to suspect upstream equipment and/or caches.
Curiously, only the ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net DNS entry is down;
all other DNS entries appear to be functioning normally. Also, "nslookup
ppa2.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net pearsoncomputing.net" returns proper

It is very late here so I cannot look into the problem tonight, but I will

Sorry, my mistake referring to "/var/apt/lists" earlier, the correct
place is actually "/var/lib/apt/lists" and it is "rm -f
/var/apt/lists/* I used to delete the maybe corrupt lists (they do get
regenerated)
I noticed also files in /var/apt/lists/partial (I deleteted them too) if
that's of any relevance
Now, apt-get update is successful on both the Wheezy and Squeeze
installs, no more errors. Whatever you did, thanks Tim.

New subject: loss of keyboard
greets!
I installed the trinity kde system several days ago and am getting
used to it, using an hp pavillion laptop with Debian.
I have problems with one app, klibido 3.5.12. you can enter
characters, words or regular expressions in a little bar called
'filter by subject'.
when I try to do so, nothing shows up: no text is entered, nor can one
do 'ctrl +a' to select all the headers. basically no keyboard entry is
possible.
I am using standard us-intl keyboard layout. the machine is an HP
Pavillion laptop. it has worked fine with all variants of Linux I've
had on it. I have no other keyboard input problems so far.
I have not tried reinstalling klibido.
any tips?
