The problem is (for any type of mirror or package) with apt-get update:

Failed to fetch http://ubuntu.org.ua/ubuntu/dists/quantal/universe/binary-amd64/Packages 307 Temporary Redirect

But:

$ wget http://ubuntu.org.ua/ubuntu/dists/quantal/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz

Why does apt-get can't get anything (packages list at first) from repository?

UPD: looks like apt can't get some (??) headers while asking for packages list, the process stops on 'Waiting for headers'.

  • The problem is with apt. It can't get anything from the web.

    Firewall don't like "Debian" user agent as User-Agent in headers... sudo vi /etc/apt/apt.conf Acquire::http::User-Agent "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/6.0)";

Try another Mirror, Go to software sources(Select ubuntu software center>edit>software sources) and select another mirror that near with ur country. And try cmd terminal: sudo apt-get update. If it's not error anymore so the problem is with ur mirror (http://ubuntu.org.ua/)...
