Release file expired

Post by ormu »

When I try to do 'apt-get update' (or update package lists in Synaptic) I get an error message:
E: Release file for http://debian.lth.se/lmde/latest/dists/ ... /InRelease is expired (invalid since 117d 10h 22min 1s). Updates for this repository will not be applied.
Everything worked earlier today but not now. Contents of sources.list here:

Sources are ok. Can't reproduce this (the actual InRelease is good), maybe they got the mirror out of sync or under maintenance (that's possible, I saw they had UP4 as incoming a few days ago).

Got this code from MOnsta the other day:

Code: Select all

    $ cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/80mintupdate-debian
    Acquire::Check-Valid-Until "false";

I tried to change to another mirror but it gives the same error:

Same problem with debian.linuxmint.com repositories...

What is this supposed to do? Disable validity check? I don't currently have that file, probably because I removed mintupdate-debian a while ago.

probably the easiest fix is to reinstall MU-debian (even if you are not going to use it) or creating the file 80mintupdate-debian with that one liner might also work (never tried it tho)

Hm, thanks, that worked. The file name doesn't even have to be "80mintupdate-debian".
