    trouble with apt-get upgrade on kali linux 2016.2

    Hi i recently tried to upgrade using apt-get . Downloaded successfuly all files and when time came to patch them something got stuck and bricked my kali machine. So i reinstalled kali linux 2016.2 fresh from the download page and tryed to run apt-get once again only to see that i got an error this time while downloading the files

    E:Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

    i tryed several things i found on google regarding this like apt-get clean apt-get update or rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* and non worked ...
    on my repositories i have these
    deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
    # For source package access, uncomment the following line
    # deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free

    so any ideas? Thanks in advance

    I'm guessing maybe that particular repo was down, or under maintenance at the time. Have you tried again?

    Glad you got it working. If your tools of choice are ok, I'd say it's a weird occurence.
