A few packages can't be upgraded

[silvarius]

Hello,

I stumbled on a problem today after trying to upgrade my MX distro on a computer that I hadn't booted for some time. 5 packages couldn't be upgraded. Apparently, from the error message I get, they can't be found on the main repo. Here are the message (partial output of a "apt dist-ugprade" command):

Err:1 http://nl.mxrepo.com/antix/stretch stretch/main i386 antix-libs all 0.6.12
404 Not Found [IP : 81.4.106.127 80]

Can you figure out what is wrong?

Thank you in advance for your help

Quite a few current threads about one of the antiX repos that MX uses having an expired gpg key.

I suspect that's the issue, so my advice is not to initiate upgrades at all for the next day or two while it's being sorted out?

Thank you for your quick reaction. So let's wait :-)

Mmmm, thinking of this, I'm not sure it's due to this expired key as we are facing here 404 errors...

@silvarius:
-Have you run sudo apt update upgrade before doing dist-upgrade.... I'm wondering because the packages listed in your errors above are on antiX directory, just the version is higher than yours e g.
-have you tried using another mirror?

antix-libs all 0.6.13 vs your error antix-libs all 0.6.12
cli-aptix all 0.2.12 vs your error cli-aptix all 0.2.9
cli-installer-antix all 3.22 vs your error cli-installer-antix all 3.21
...

Does the solution here work for you?

Those are all old versions that are no longer in the repos, so you'll have to wait for the antix keyring to get in MX main, then update the repos again before doing the update. Right now it's relying on the old package list.
