Xfce desktop, tasksel: apt-get failed (100)

#1 Post by Chaklader »

I was installing Xfec desktop environment in the Debian 8 OS. I logged in as root and command tasksel in the shell. Among the other chooses, I selected the Xfce. At the time the installation is few seconds left, I get the message tasksel: apt-get failed (100). I did an sudo apt-get update but the issue seems stayed as it is after the next try. What to do now?

What happens if you open a Terminal and issue the command (as Root)

Code: Select all

apt install xfce4
?
