This makes no sense to me. Clearly your package lists are out of date, but apt thinks they are not. I don't have an explanation for that, but maybe it helps to delete all the list files in /var/lib/apt/lists and rerun "apt update". Be sure to keep the auxfiles/ and partial/ directories as well as the lock file, though. $ sudo find /var/lib/apt/lists -type f '!' -empty -delete $ sudo apt update Good luck, Sven
