apt not updating.

#1 Post by mloiterman »

I've recently updated to 10.3.

Before and after my upgrade:

Code: Select all

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
worked perfectly.

However, sometime after 2/29/20, something has happened and now using that same command shows:

Code: Select all

root@freeswitch:~# apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
Hit:1 http://files.freeswitch.org/repo/deb/debian-release buster InRelease
Hit:2 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster InRelease
Hit:3 http://deb.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates InRelease
Hit:4 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates InRelease

Given that I have 1327 packages installed, I find it hard to believe that none of them have been updated in the last three weeks.

Here is my sources list:

Code: Select all

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main contrib non-free

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/ buster/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/ buster/updates main contrib non-free

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib non-free
I do not have unattended-upgrades installed, so I don't know what is going on.

I can install packages without any problems.

Code: Select all

uname -a
Linux freeswitch 4.19.0-8-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.98-1 (2020-01-26) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Code: Select all

cat /etc/debian_version
10.3
Any ideas?

Stable only gets security updates, nothing else. Nothing will get upgraded to a shiny new version aside from Firefox and a few others.

Yeah, but as far as I know, I've always been on stable and I've always gotten tons of updates.

Since 29th february, there have been updates for popular packages such as firefox and thunderbird. Do you have any of them installed ? If yes, you can check their version status with

Code: Select all

apt-cache policy <package> <package> ...
and compare the versions with the ones in the security advisories.

Hello. To make things simple, you can subscribe to debian-security-announce mailing list
https://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/

Personally, I only received one update since February. It was Firefox-esr. By the way, there are only 846 packages on my system. :)
