Re: after recent upgrade, many packages doesn't work anymore

For the last few days, every time I compile with TeXworks I get the 
message about the missing unicode-data package.  I answer Yes to install 
it and get a message that the package couldn't be installed.  
Fortunately my files still compile.  Looking at the log I see a 
statement that the respository is not online.  I just tried to manually 
install the package but got the same message from the package manager. 
Has the main respository really been offline for a week or more, or is 
something else going on?  I've never installed packages manually or 
changed respositories, and I don't want to mess up my installation.  (I 
have always used the "get from closest repository" option; I am in the 
US.)  I just ran the updater and it says there are no new packages.  Any 
advice appreciated!
