This is a new ubuntu 10.04 root server at the hoster. I did the initial

sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade

Now I am confronted with this message each time I run sudo aptitude safe-upgrade

root@Ubuntu-1004-lucid-64-minimal ~ # sudo aptitude safe-upgrade

I wrote to support and they fixed it. I believe they had not properly managed their package mirrors.
