Waterfox generates error during apt-get update #1

Closed graciecat closed 7 years ago

graciecat commented 7 years ago

I followed the instructions at: https://hawkeye116477.github.io/waterfox-deb/ .

When I did sudo apt-get update I got the following error message:

`W: Failed to fetch https://hawkeye116477.github.io/waterfox-deb/dists/release/InRelease Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. `

Using Ubuntu 14.04.5

Waterfox is only 64-bit. If you have a 32-bit OS, then Waterfox will not work.

@hawkeye116477 My OS is 64-bit Ubuntu 14.04 ! So apparently something is not correct with my sources.list ? What is the correct ppa that I need?

I found solution to your problem. Add [arch=amd64] to entry in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/waterfox-release-hawkeye116477.list . This should look like this --> deb [arch=amd64] https://hawkeye116477.github.io/waterfox-deb release main I hope that this will help you.

That did help me, before you changed your repository. Thanks.
