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

Switching to an alternative repo mirror cleared up issue.

Then either wait and try again later, or change repos with MX Repo Manager.

[Eadwine Rose]

Already did Jerry, stated below the code :)

Harrumph.

Looks like it's back to working again.

I first noticed the error the day before, but waited until the next day to raise the alarm.
Since it wasn't getting better, I figured it was time to report the problem so it would get some attention.

Thanks for the work-around tips. :-)

Same thing been happening when I tried updating using MX Repo @ mirror.evowise.com for last three days. Easy fix changing to another mirror, but seems odd since evowise seems to be default.
