apt-get update returns error - feign - 22nd Feb, 2015 12:01 AM

This error below started appearing when i run apt-get update on my xbian. I'm not really sure why and searching for the problem returned nothing useful. Can anybody point me to the right direction? Thank you.

I've pasted apt sources below.

W: Failed to fetch http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/dists/wheezy/Release Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
W: Failed to fetch mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt/dists/stable/Release 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.

Have you tried upgrading via ssh xbian-config - especially 1) Upgrading the mirrors?

I have, didn't help. I think that mirrors are OK but something is strange with architecture. Mine is trying to find i386 in Release file and when i check //mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/dists/wheezy/Release it has only armhf

RE: apt-get update returns error - rikardo1979 - 22nd Feb, 2015 05:41 AM

so what was you doing before this happened? your issue is very, very strange Smile

RE: apt-get update returns error - deHakkelaar - 22nd Feb, 2015 08:50 AM

Maybe related to me having created an additional wheezy apt mirror for the amd64 architecture on the same box that hosts the xbian.dehakkelaar.nl mirror for xbian.
I symlinked some components from the xbian armhf apt mirror to the same mirror that holds the amd64 files (different root folder) so to create my own repo with only deb files that i need for private use.
Maybe some components jumped via the symlinks to the wrong spot on my xbian mirror.
Have removed the symlinks I created and in about 30 minutes from now, xbian.dehakkelaar.nl will get refreshed/resynced.

Try again please after running 'sudo apt-get clean all'?

RE: apt-get update returns error - feign - 23rd Feb, 2015 12:15 AM

Thanks for reply but it didn't help. :/
Could it be that i installed something with i386 architecture that has now dependency on those releases?

RE: apt-get update returns error - deHakkelaar - 23rd Feb, 2015 02:30 PM

My mirror now is as clean as can be.

Try play with:
dpkg --print-architecture
dpkg --print-foreign-architectures

I believe with below one you can remove arch:
dpkg --remove-architecture i386

Or add :
dpkg --add-architecture armhf

Need to do 'apt-get update' afterwards and maybe 'apt-get clean' first.

Tank you! This worked; removing i386 arch. I installed new updates and now i have this situation.
Should i do dist-upgrade or just leave it as it is?

Thank you again!

Never do dist-upgrade.

After installing the latest xbian-update of today users will get this nice warning Smile Lets hope it helps:
Terminal

After a reboot or after a re-login.

RE: apt-get update returns error - deHakkelaar - 25th Feb, 2015 03:15 AM

I did not try to re-login again.
After 'reboot', the warning changed.
