Hello,

I get the following error when running the "aptitude update" command. Any idea?

I ran into this same problem on a clean Beta 3 install.

To fix the problem you need to delete the stale ftp.us.debian.org files from /var/lib/apt/lists.

If you run `rm -f /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.us.debian.org*`, then re-run `aptitude update`, it should fix the problem for you.
