Our team is working to resolve an issue with the mirrors that occurred this morning due to an issue with the latest upstream sync. The mirror maintainers are working to update it and resolve this issue now.
If the DigitalOcean repositories aren’t working, you can edit /etc/apt/sources.list, comment out the DigitalOcean repos and then paste in (for Ubuntu 14.04 - trusty):
#+ Ubuntu Main Repos
deb http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main restricted universe multiverse
#+ Ubuntu Update Repos
deb http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-backports main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://01.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-backports main restricted universe multiverse
Then run:
apt-get update
Followed by:
apt-get install -y htop
This will pull from the main Ubuntu repositories.
You could also simply:
cp /etc/apt/sources.list /usr/local/src/sources.list \
&& rm /etc/apt/sources.list \
&& nano /etc/apt/sources.list
… and then paste in the above, run the update and then install htop. This copies sources.list so you have a backup.
I am having the same issue trying to install nodejs.
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
