Unable to update

Help and Support
#1

Hi- i’m sure this is due to having non-standard things installed, but I don’t know enough to fix it.
Running manual apt-get update and dist-upgrade also result in errors

Can anyone help an idiot? I’ve got too much I need to keep to abandon and restart…

The log is here: https://paste.osmc.tv/idehiguteb

Hi,

Please post these errors.

Thanks Tom.

I think you have just tried to upgrade from Debian ‘Jessie’. This is a two-stage process and may not have completed fully. Try to upgrade again and post any errors as Tom suggests.

Ok, for now you’ll need to edit btsync.list and raspotify.list in /etc/apt/sources.list.d and comment out everything by inserting a # in column 1, then run

dpkg --print-architecture
sudo apt-get update

and show us the output.

#9

Many thanks
Here you go

#10

Can you also comment out all the lines in resilio-sync.list and run another sudo apt-get update. For some reason it’s looking for the wrong architecture (armel) on OSMC.

#11
#12

Perhaps we need to clear our the old entries:

sudo find /var/lib/apt/lists -type f -delete
sudo apt-get update
#13
#14

I’ll need to do a bit of research to see why it is looking for the wrong architecture but I’m out of time for today. Perhape someone in a different timezone can take up the reins.

#15

I’m very grateful for the help.
Sleep well!

#16

The answer came to me after I signed off: you have a multi-architecture installation.

The following should allow OSMC to update to Debian stretch, though the other repos we’ll need to deal with separately.

Edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change the line:

deb http://apt.osmc.tv stretch main

to

deb [arch=armhf] http://apt.osmc.tv stretch main

then run

sudo apt-get update

and with luck the final error should have gone. If so, you can then run

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Assuming no problems, you’ll probably need to run:

reboot
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
#17

It didn’t say quite that, but

Should I still alter that last line? I.e. not stretch

#18

My error. It should have said jessie. So:

Edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change the line:

deb http://apt.osmc.tv jessie main

to

deb [arch=armhf] http://apt.osmc.tv jessie main

It should update the file to stretch automatically.
