apt error Skipping acquire of configured file on all repos

#1 Post by pghnismo »

i'm running debian buster and any repo i add i'm getting an error

N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-linux-x64/Packages' as repository 'http://httpredir.debian.org/debian buster InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'linux-x64'
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'contrib/binary-linux-x64/Packages' as repository 'http://httpredir.debian.org/debian buster InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'linux-x64'
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'non-free/binary-linux-x64/Packages' as repository 'http://httpredir.debian.org/debian buster InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'linux-x64'
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-linux-x64/Packages' as repository 'http://httpredir.debian.org/debian buster-updates InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'linux-x64'
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'contrib/binary-linux-x64/Packages' as repository 'http://httpredir.debian.org/debian buster-updates InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'linux-x64'
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'non-free/binary-linux-x64/Packages' as repository 'http://httpredir.debian.org/debian buster-updates InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'linux-x64'

the only way to make it go away is by adding [arch=amd64] in front of every repo in my source file.

it's also stopping me from installing some packages i've scoured the net and can't seem to find anything that matches my issues

my kernel was updated
4.13.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.13.4-2 (2017-10-15) x86_64 GNU/Linux

this is a fresh install of buster from dvd

It's strange, since your kernel is 64bit, it would be normal missing the i386 architecture, but not the amd64, anyway, try adding it with dpkg:
as root or with sudo give it a try:
dpkg --add-architecture amd64

thank you for guiding me in the right direction, the repair for is was "dpkg --remove-architecture linux-x64" i must have pasted something in there when adding the i386 architecture
