Can't install awstats on Ubuntu 8.04 ... apt-get newb alert!
Anyway, I'm trying to install awstats.
I get the following error:

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
I poked around, and there was a security update issued yesterday. I don't know if that's causing my problems.
I assume what's wrong is either
1) apt-get needs to get an updated list of packages somewhere
2) I need to update some other packages before I can install awstats
3) I just need to wait until that security update propagates around
4) some other answer, and I'm just stupid.
Can anyone shed light on this situation?
Thanks,
Eric.

apt-get update will probably fix it.
I was confused between "upgrade" and "update". I didn't want to make huge changes (even though this is my test linode).
Running update allowed the install to complete!
It tells you all the cool things apt can do

You are running 'upgrade' on a regular basis, right?
