I am having this error as well, however when I look at my sources.list, I see no mention of jessie.A screenshot of Debian 10 ( Buster) with the GNOME desktop environmentĭebian releases do not follow a fixed schedule. (There are some discussions about resurrecting the jessie-updates suite to avoid the above errors, but it is probably getting less and less useful as time passes.) Posted in PlanetDebian Post navigation So you need to disable this check globally, using: echo 'Acquire::Check-Valid-Until no ' > /etc/apt//99no-check-valid-until Unfortunately, with the APT version in jessie, this cannot be ignored on a per source basis (it can with the APT version from stretch, using the deb.

It is useless, because all packages that were in jessie-updates were merged into jessie when Debian 8.11 was released. This was announced on debian-devel-announce, resulting in the errors quoted above.įor the jessie-updates suite, you can simply remove it from your /etc/apt/sources.list. The FTP masters team decided to remove the jessie-updates and jessie-backports suite from the mirrors. Which makes sense, because the backports team provides backports for the current release, and stretch was released in June 2017. The only updates will be through the security suite, by the Debian Long Term Support project.Īt about the same time (I think – I could not find an announcement - Update: announcement), the maintenance of backports for jessie was also stopped. In other words: jessie and jessie-updates won’t receive any update.

See the backports team website.ĭebian 8.11 (in June 2018) was the final update for Debian 8. They are new versions of packages, based on the version currently in the testing suite. Security updates are also included.īackports follow an entirely different path. They consist in updating the stable suite by copying important updates that were submitted to stable-proposed-updates. Stable point releases happen every few months (see for example the Debian 8.11 stable point release). Interestingly, a large proportion of those updates are related to changes to daylight-saving-time rules that are sometimes made very late by some countries. They are announced on the debian-stable-announce mailing list. They are announced on the debian-security-announce mailing list.ĭeb jessie-updates main ( stable-updates above) is a suite used to distribute important updates that are unrelated to security, and that cannot wait the next stable point release. It is used by the Debian security team to provide security updates. It is then updated from stable-new (an internal suite) when stable point releases happen (see below).ĭeb jessie/updates main is the security suite in the figure above. It is initialized by copying the content of the testing suite when a new stable release happens, approximately every two years. (This is slide 42 of the Debian Packaging Tutorial.)ĭeb jessie main is the easy one. The typical /etc/apt/sources.list file for a jessie system with backports enabled is: deb jessie mainĭeb jessie-backports main contrib non-freeĭeb-src jessie-backports main contrib non-freeĭebian packages are distributed using suites (which can be understood as channels). I was not involved in that decision (which was made by the FTP masters team), but since there is some confusion around it, I will try to give my understanding of the resulting issues.

If you are still running jessie you probably noticed that the jessie-updates and jessie-backports suites have been removed from mirrors, because you got those error messages: W: Failed to fetch 404 Not Found
