Hi Monchote,
Thank you for the link to your fix. I tried both the suggestions
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
and
sudo rm -r /var/lib/apt/lists/*
sudo mkdir /var/lib/apt/lists/partial
sudo apt-get update
This resulted in the following output
osmc@osmc:~$ sudo rm -r /var/lib/apt/lists/*
osmc@osmc:~$ sudo mkdir /var/lib/apt/lists/partial
osmc@osmc:~$ sudo apt-get update

But I didn’t get very far and I still get the error “OSMC Update Error: Error installing: Please report this on the OSMC forum” when I restart my rpi2 and try the update again. The “sudo apt-get dist-upgrade” did update a bunch of things but I didn’t capture what it said It had updated. But I guess that worked because if I try and run it again it just says that there is nothing to update anymore

I am far from an expert with linux but it does seem to me that it is having trouble connecting to “staging.apt.osmc.tv”
I tried from my windows machine to reach that address but it failed.
C:\Users\Neil>tracert staging.apt.osmc.tv
Unable to resolve target system name staging.apt.osmc.tv.
I have uploaded all the logs this time here http://paste.osmc.io/nabeviwuja in the hope that it might shine some light on my problem.
Thanks in advanace to anyone who helps out…
Regards
Neil.
