The APT source you were having trouble with is not, and has never been, a part of GalliumOS. It must have come in with a change you made after installation.
The only APT sources GalliumOS has ever included are the official GalliumOS and Ubuntu repositories. Actually that's not quite correct -- one of the 3.0alphas inadvertently included a postinstall script from one of the new not-fully-tested package additions (AppGrid), which added its own APT PPA (launchpad). This was a bug, fixed in the next alpha ISO.
Any APT source other than apt.galliumos.org
and *.ubuntu.com
would be considered a bug.
It appeared previously that I had trouble with some background update process (?) updating "snapd". This may have been a known issue, but it took ~10 minutes for my system to shutdown while it waited on this update to complete. Once this finished, I booted my system, and all icons were missing (e.g. for all applications) from my OS. I then tried to update my system. Whether this was attempted via the "GalliumOS Update" or
sudo apt update
, the result was the same:It appears that this issue is caused by the fact that the address of the third-party media archive
'http://www.debian-multimedia.org
is incorrect. This archive was long ago moved to'http://www.deb-multimedia.org
.There were notes on deb-multimedia.org posted this week (March 22, 2019) about a change to the address of the archive to "archive.deb-multimedia.org". However, I was unable to use that new address (404 error). Instead, I used "www.deb-multimedia.org". Also on deb.multimedia.org, I found posted previously that "etch" should be taken to mean "oldstable". With these things in mind, I made the following change to my sources.list:
Replace
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org etch main
withdeb http://www.deb-multimedia.org oldstable main
This fixed the 404 error above. That said, the following is unclear to me:
Next, the public key used to verify this package did not exist.
I followed the advice here: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=133986#p675127 and executed the following:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 5C808C2B65558117
This fixed the issue and I was able to upgrade, etc..
