I have the same problem, but I don't know how to solve it?

[chenshaolang]

I found that this seems to be due to the fact that I'm using ZSH instead of BASH, and when I use BASH it seems to work fine.

[helixarch]

Maybe due to "bashisms"

I have the same problem, somebody can help me

校园网吗？可以试试手机流量。或者像他们一样试一试bash和zsh。我是校园网的问题。我是arch＋kde，代理是qv2ray。

不是校园网，我实在zsh里面更新的

抱歉，我没遇到过。你的终端显示的是什么原因？

我的问题现在解决了，sudo debtap -u速度特别慢，网上说换源，你知道debtap怎么换源吗

[HUANMVP]

不好意思，我不知道。你可以参考下这个人的博客

I have the same issue. It seems that debtap is not able to identify the current Ubuntu version (line 85; https://github.com/helixarch/debtap/blob/02d3b9f8fd9fb50e6af44dee80e13eb95000f1a9/debtap#L85). The command returns nothing on my system.

https://github.com/helixarch/debtap/blob/02d3b9f8fd9fb50e6af44dee80e13eb95000f1a9/debtap#L85

). The command returns nothing on my system.

modify 85 line ubuntu_latest_stable_version = "implish" is ok

I solved this problem by a very foolish way. first modify the debtap script use sudo

sudo vim /usr/bin/debtap

then comment or remove these lines from script. they will check the computer env and download the correct file.

if [[ $_arch == amd64 ]]; then
                curl -C - -f http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/$ubuntu_latest_stable_version/Contents-$_arch.gz > /var/cache/debtap/ubuntu-packages-files.gz
else
                curl -C - -f http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/$ubuntu_latest_stable_version/Contents-$_arch.gz > /var/cache/debtap/ubuntu-packages-files.gz
fi

And then download the Contents-$_arch.gz manually from this website. For my arch linux, i download the Contents-amd64.gz After that, move the gz file to /var/cache/debtap/ directory and rename this file to ubuntu-packages-files.gz. u can use mv command or rename command. then retry sudo debtap -u. I get finally

debtap -u works when using bash, but not when using zsh. My solution was to do the following: sudo bash debtap -u
