I have run into this problem before and have found it is best to just
periodically purge all but the most "official-looking" repositories I
have in the Application Manager.  This is annoying, as then I have to
go back and find and re-enter the repositories that I need.

Mayber there is some logging somewhere that tells you exactly what is
failing.  I haven't found it yet.
