I wanted to try the Unity Desktop Pastie Indicator on Ubuntu 12.04.
I did sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hel-sheep/pastie.
It seemed to complete ok.
You are about to add the following PPA to your system:
More info: https://launchpad.net/~hel-sheep/+archive/pastie
Press [ENTER] to continue or ctrl-c to cancel adding it
gpg: keyring `/tmp/tmpJ0XyNg/secring.gpg' created

gpg: key DE4CA452: public key "Launchpad fmoc" imported
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: imported: 1 (RSA: 1)
OK
Then I did sudo apt-get update. It failed with this message at the end:
W: Failed to fetch

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old
ones used instead.
I've never had a failure installing a ppa before. What is the proper
way to clean it up?
Thanks, Jim
