    You should check your network connection and try again. The PPA you mentioned is alive and provide packages for 14.04 LTS.

You should check your network connection settings and firewall and try again.



The PPA you mentioned ("The official Ubuntu Tweak stable repository") is alive and provide packages for 14.04 LTS.



So you can install Ubuntu Tweak with



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak
