I keep getting Failed to fetch

 Temporary failure resolving 'us.archive.ubuntu.com'

Is this just me or is anyone else having this issue?

is up. But your PC cannot resolve the DNS for it.

One work around is to try and edit /etc/resolv.conf and add a line:

nameserver 1.1.1.1

at the very end.

Another work around is for you to tell your PC where us.archive.ubuntu.com is pointed to. To do that you can add the following line in /etc/hosts:

91.189.91.39 us.archive.ubuntu.com

I would go with the first workaround, which should solve the issue permanently..

Unless you are somehow being blocked by firewall or router to make outbound connections.
