I'm trying to install emacs in ubuntu 12.10. I've typed the following in the terminal

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cassou/emacs
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install emacs-snapshot

and I had received the following message:

Failed to fetch http://ph.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/e/emacsen-common/emacsen-common_2.0.3_all.deb  Size mismatch
Failed to fetch http://ph.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libo/libotf/libotf0_0.9.12-2_i386.deb  Size mismatch
E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

please help

Have you tried with the recommendation (maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing)? – Lucio Feb 9 at 5:52
I received errors as I run the sudo apt-get update == W: A error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error: ph.archive.ubuntu.com quantal-updates Release: The following signatures were invalid: NODATA 1 NODATA 2 – Ralf17 Feb 9 at 6:51
Ok. Now you must resolve your problem with apt-get update. Please edit your question and add there the output that you get. – Lucio Feb 10 at 1:11

I have already solved the problem. It was just the internet connection. The wifi in that place that I was using restricts my download so I just used my broadband. thanks any way. – Ralf17 Mar 9 at 23:31

I'm glade that you find the solution. Please, create a new answer to tell us how did you resolved the problem. That is how the site work. Is more useful than show it into a comment. Thanks! – Lucio Mar 10 at 2:11
