[ SOLVED ] Problems with LL3.6 updates

[justme2]

Multiple thanks!

It's difficult to pinpoint exactly why this would have occurred. Glad it's sorted.

Open /etc/apt/sources.list.d/linuxlite.list as Administrator and replace each instance of xenial with citrine.
Do the same with /etc/apt/sources.list.d/linuxlite.list.save

Thanks yet again Jerry, updates now working ok.

As I have shared the iso with U3A members, can you help me to understand why this issue occurred with a fresh install? Did I download an outdated iso (I think it came from sourceforge). I might be subject to lots of 'tuts' at the next U3A meeting after convincing everyone that 'linux just works' 

I must be sure of having the latest iso in future.

Hi @justme2
If you try to reach this link  on your browser http://repo.linuxliteos.com/linuxlite/dists/xenial/main/binary-amd64/Packages you'll notice its status is actually 404. 


Remove that one form your sources.list and try to update again and see if that works.

Thanks for your response, I realised that might be the problem but I could find no reference to that repo in any of the sources files.

Just installed LL3.6 64bit which runs ok, but can't update. I have made no changes apart from trying different repos with the same result. Also tried update from terminal, same error.
Help please
