Re: Sources - Helium sources.list and backports details

Er... no. But is everything updating and upgrading OK now? Can you sudo apt update, sudo apt upgrade, apt-cache policy foo and then sudo apt install foo?

Re: Sources - Helium sources.list and backports details

Hi all,

So I haven't used BL for about... 4-5 months, needed my laptop to be user friendly for the household. Anyway, launched it yesterday, decided to apt update/upgrade and it seems that the repositories are down?

And following is the contents of:

sources.list:

# 

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 9.6 _Helium_ - Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20181113-17:01]/ stretch contrib main non-free

#deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 9.6 _Helium_ - Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20181113-17:01]/ stretch contrib main non-free

deb https://deb.debian.org/debian stretch main non-free contrib
# deb-src https://deb.debian.org/debian stretch main non-free contrib

## Debian security updates
deb https://deb.debian.org/debian-security stretch/updates main contrib non-free

# stretch-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb https://deb.debian.org/debian stretch-updates main contrib non-free
# deb-src https://deb.debian.org/debian stretch-updates main contrib non-free

bunsen.list

deb https://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian helium main

debian-stretch-backports.list

# added by bl-welcome
# Debian backports
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian stretch-backports main contrib non-free

bunsen-stretch-backports.list

# added by bl-welcome
# BunsenLabs backports
deb http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian stretch-backports main

Does it have to do with anything Debian 10 related? Also, I seem to have an issue with installing software, this makes me want to distrohop!

Re: Sources - Helium sources.list and backports details

The error messages you were getting were with Debian and third-party repositories - I wonder if you were having a temporary network problem?

Your sources list entries are identical to mine. Maybe try again?

Re: Sources - Helium sources.list and backports details

I haven't changed a thing with sources list. Checking it every time I get to my laptop.

Re: Sources - Helium sources.list and backports details

Can you upgrade the one upgradeable package?

Also, remove all repos except for the essential one...

deb https://deb.debian.org/debian stretch main non-free contrib

Run 'sudo apt update' and post the code output (no screenshot is needed). Maybe the backport repo or something else is screwing things up.

Re: Sources - Helium sources.list and backports details

Remember:

Bunsen Labs Helium is fully compatible with Debian Stretch (v 9).
Bunsen Labs Lithium is fully compatible with Debian Buster (v 10).

Do not mix Litium and Stretch.
Do not use both Debian named version (Stretch/Buster) and descriptive version (stable).

With BunsenLabs, it is best to use named version.
When upgrading, you change repos both for Debian and for BunsenLabs repo. You have beter control what is happening then.
