Hm: its source is "vlc", not vlc-dmo, as your system is trying to download.

Now I'm not so acquainted with apt's innards to understand why, in your system, apt is trying to fetch the source from deb-multimedia [1] [2]. Cheers [1] Yes, the official name is deb-multimedia.org, although people still say "Debian Multimedia", but this is confusing, because there is a team whithin Debian with the same name [2] https://ftp.deb-multimedia.org/dists/stable/main/binary-arm64/package/libvlc-bin.php Click past the browser's panic attack. It's just that dmo has a certificate which doesn't cover "ftp.". -- tomás
