Ubuntu PPA error: repository doesn't support architecture 'i386' #2090

Open dregad opened 3 years ago

dregad commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I just upgraded to Ubunbu 20.04. I updated the apt sources list as documented at https://goaccess.io/download#distro

deb https://deb.goaccess.io/ focal main

When updating packages, I get the following message

# apt update
...
Hit:8 https://deb.goaccess.io focal InRelease           
...
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'https://deb.goaccess.io focal InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386'

Fixed the problem by updating the source as follows

deb [arch=amd64] https://deb.goaccess.io/ focal main

Thank a lot for sharing that!

It's sad that the i386 support for major Linux distributions like Ubuntu recently started to disappear. Sharing these notes will help folks!

I'll keep it open for a while.

Same issue here. Does this mean we can't use GoAccess on our current hardware?

Who is responsible for the i386 support (hardware vendors, kernel maintainers, GoAccess devs)?

@snowweb https://eofla.wordpress.com/2020/04/01/ubuntu-20-04-lts-i386-repository-fade-out/ seems like i386 faded out on 20.04

But wait... I'm not using i386, so why am I caught up in this?

root@s2:~# dpkg --print-architecture amd64

root@s2:~# uname -a Linux s2 5.4.0-74-generic #83-Ubuntu SMP Sat May 8 02:35:39 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux`

This is happening on a freshly installed VPS provisioned by Contabo.

Okay. I think we understand what is going on now. Please see https://www.howtoforge.com/community/threads/goaccess-does-not-support-i386-architecture.87108/, for the complete picture.

It looks like GoAccess is not handling the recently introduced debian multi-architecture features properly.

@snowweb do you have any docs for reference about the multi-architecture features that debian introduced so I can take a look? thanks

@allinurl Sorry for the delay. I think this is what you're looking for https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/HOWTO
