Bug#513039: UK-specific related problem

I had a bug which presented itself in the same way. I looked at 
sources.list and found that the lines

deb http://ftp.gb.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main
deb-src http://ftb.gb.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main

were present. I checked the mirrors listed on the Debian website

http://www.debian.org/mirror/list

and found that the UK mirror was listed as

http://ftp.*uk*.debian.org/debian

under "Great Britain". I changed the addresses in my sources.list and 
software-properties-gtk loaded fine from the command line and the 
administration gui menu. I had not set these values so I can only assume 
that Debian Squeeze installs the wrong UK mirrors currently.

I hope this helps,
James
