In my /etc/apt/sources.list file:



deb http://debian.ruc.dk/rumd stretch main 
deb-src http://debian.ruc.dk/rumd stretch main


When I run sudo apt update I see



Ign:10 http://debian.ruc.dk/rumd stretch InRelease 
Hit:11 http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable Release
Err:12 http://debian.ruc.dk/rumd stretch Release
404 Not Found
E: The repository 'http://debian.ruc.dk/rumd stretch Release' does not have a Release file.


EDIT: The error appears to be that there is no Release file. Is there a way to still download the package?



And when I run sudo apt install rumd I get



E: Unable to locate package rumd


The repository, however, seems perfectly accessible. What is going on? I am on Debian 9.4 stretch.

  • I suspect the issue is that repositories that do not provide a release file are now considered insecure by default. You may be able to work around it by passing the Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories option or (perhaps better) marking the specific repo as [trusted=yes] in your sources.list. See man apt-secure for further details and make sure you understand the security implications.

  • Thanks, I added [trusted=yes]. I see (among other, ignored, sources): Get:21 http://debian.ruc.dk/rumd stretch/main amd64 Packages [1,587 B] when I run apt update. However, if I run apt install rumd (as per their download page), I still get E: Unable to locate package rumd. Any idea?

  • Do you have any foreign architectures enabled? dpkg --print-foreign-architectures

  • ... if so, try making that deb [arch=amd64 trusted=yes] and then running apt update again

The HTTP 404, 404 Not Found and 404 error message is a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) standard response code, in computer network communications, to indicate that the client was able to communicate with a given server, but the server could not find what was requested.




The above is from Wikipedia



In your case, maybe you don't have connection to that page.
You can just get another source.list and have a try.
Hint: you can use the source in your country, which is faster in most case.
