Error in apt-get update

Question

Whenever I run "sudo apt-get update" I get

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt-get update

Is there a way to remove that problematic url from the list that is checked whenever "apt-get update" is run?

Answer 1

All the repository URL's are in the apt source files.

The main source file is /etc/apt/sources.list. You can edit the file with e.g. nano to remove the offending 'etcher' line(s):

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

You also need to check the 'secondary' list files. That is any .list file in directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. You should find e.g. raspi.list in there, which points to the RPF repositories. You need to check all the list files in there and if necessary edit the file.

Answer 2

For thoose who get the same error I used to manage it in adding dirmngr package

apt-get install dirmngr

and add manually the missing keys

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys YOUR_KEY_HERE
