Thread moved to 'Updates' section
You have two problems.
1) PPA
The version of Linux Lite on your system is based on an Ubuntu release named noble. You have added some software (nathan-renniewaldock flux) which is from a PPA (Personal Project Archive). The PPA for nathan-renniewaldock flux does not have a release compatible with noble. This conflict is causing the update process to error.
The incompatible flux software should be removed from the system.
After removing the flux software, ensure that the flux PPA reference is removed from the update list.
Removing the PPA reference from the update list should allow the update to run.
See this link for the Linux Lite manual references on how to do this.
https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/software.html#pparem
Repeat the above for the linuxuprising PPA which has the same problem of no release for noble
When using PPA software, it is important that the PPA has a release that is compatible with the OS.
See this link for Linux Lite manual advice on selecting and installing PPAs
https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/software.html#ppa
As you are on Linux Lite 7.x, ensure that any PPA you consider installing offers a version compatible with Ubuntu noble.
2) archive.canonical.com
Have you recently run the Lite Tweak called 'Package System Repair' possibly when trying to fix the PPA problem.
If you did, unfortunately, 'Package System Repair' can add an unwanted repository.
To remove the unwanted repository.
Click Menu and type 'software & updates' into the search box - when you see 'Software & Updates' offered as a choice, click on it
Select 'Other Software' tab
Uncheck any entries for 'http://archive.canonical.com/ noble'
Enter your password when asked
Click Close and then Reload to refresh the cache.
When you have fixed both the issues try to update/upgrade again.
