I keep getting several of the following type of errors:
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'contrib/binary-ia386/Packages' as repository 'http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stable InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'ia386'
I have looked through sources.list and in the sources.list.d directory. I can't seem to find it.
My sources.list looks pretty normal:
deb http://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ stable/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ stable/updates main contrib non-free
# stable-updates, previously known as 'volatile'

Re: Apt Sources Doesn't Support ia386
I have never heard of a architecture; "ia386"
on the Debian.org site, Where did you get your original install ?
They do have repositories for : i386
https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/ ... 01.html.en
======== edit =====
Nothing listed for ia386 here: https://www.debian.org/CD/http-ftp/#stable
All though your sources.list points to Debian Stable, what is the actual version of Debian you are using ? IE, Debian 6, Debian 7, Debian 8, or is it 9 the current stable version,.... For example , if you are using Debian 7, and your sources point toward "stable", you would be trying to install or update , for Debian 9 (stable), and that would not work.
And have never seen any Debian Install images for ia386InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'ia386'

Re: Apt Sources Doesn't Support ia386
Run this
If it returns "ia386" (which it probably will), run
Run the `dpkg --print-foreign-architectures' command again to verify that it now returns "i386".
Then update
Code: Select all
dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
Code: Select all
su -c 'dpkg --remove-architecture ia386'
Code: Select all
su -c 'dpkg --add-architecture i386'
Then update
Code: Select all
su -c 'apt-get update'
Re: Apt Sources Doesn't Support ia386
I downloaded Debian from the Debian website. I am using Debian 9 Stable.
dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
i386
ia386
---------------------------------------------
Commands processed
--------------------------------------------
dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
i386
sudo apt update: no errors
--------------------------------------------
Ok, that was odd. I don't know how ia386 got installed in the first place unless Steam or something added it. Or Google? Don't know.
Thanks for the help, that seems to have fixed it.

Re: [SOLVED] Apt Sources Doesn't Support ia386
There is a port called ia64 for Intel Itanium processors which was dropped for Jessie but has recently been revived. There has never been an ia386 afaik.
https://wiki.debian.org/Ports/ia64
Probably just someone pwning your machine and adding it to mess with you. Or more likely just an accidental command mistype or something.
