hey there,
both with automatic as well as with manual update, I get an OSMC update error.
here is the log file:
http://paste.osmc.io/irutumisek.vhdl
i already done “sudo apt-get clean” and "sudo apt-get update
hope you could help 
That is only a Kodi log. Upload full logs with grab-logs -A
But what I can assume from your screenshot is that you have added none osmc/arm repositories
http://paste.osmc.io/kemowurufu
and iam running a MusicBot on it. but the problem is with a fresh install of OSMC/Kodi too.
I was not refering to a Kodi repository but to any apt sources that you seemed to had installed earlier (seems now be removed).
Anyhow in your last log files I don’t see any errors anymore. Are you still getting errors?
Then post output of
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
still getting error, and now, i cant grab-logs??
EDIT: now it worked with “sudo grab-logs -A”

I’ve been having the same error for quite a few days too.
Here my log right after triggering a manual update and getting the error dialog: http://paste.osmc.io/gilujepiku
I’ve just tried to run the update with debug logging on and here’s the error thrown (see bottom of error log):
