Greetings earthlings! I am running an old Jessie I refuse to let go of, on an amd64. # uname -a Linux debian.localdomain 3.16.0-7-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.59-1 (2018-10-03) x86_64 GNU/Linux Here is the apt-get update output error: W: Failed to fetch http://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/jessie-updates/InRelease Unable to find expected entry 'main/source/Sources' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file) This is my sources.list. It represents my effort to invoke LTS for this Jessie. I can't see anything in it that even vaguely resembles the line above. -snip- deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ jessie-updates main contrib non-free -snip- Any and all contributions will be gratefully and thoroughly examined. Thank you. -- "In our age there is no such thing as ‘keeping out of politics’. All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred, and schizophrenia."

Just remove that line. foo-updates is a repository that exists only while a stable release is still supported and receiving point-release updates (like 8.3, 8.4, 8.5). The foo-updates repository is a place where the updates that are GOING to be in the next point release are available before the formal point release happens. Since jessie will never receive another point-release update, there is no reason to have a jessie-updates repository. So, the repository was removed, nuked, wiped out, obliterated, you have no chance to survive make your time. This could have been communicated or handled a bit more smoothly.

He had complimented me on how I spoke Italian, and we talked together very easily. One day I had said that Italian seemed such an easy language to me that I could not take a great interest in it; everything was so easy to say. "Ah, yes," the major said.
