apt-get update returns error
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.

RE: apt-get update returns error
Have you tried upgrading via ssh xbian-config - especially 1) Upgrading the mirrors?

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
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
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.

I did not try to re-login again.
After 'reboot', the warning changed. There are only 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary, and those who don't |
