I cannot get Ubuntu 15.04 to find the new Virtualbox.  When I run "sudo
apt-get update" on any of my 15.04 computers, I get the following error:

...

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones
used instead.

This is the sources file I'm using, which worked for me in the past on
these computers:

> cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian vivid contrib

Anyone else seeing this, or know how to fix it?
