The hint at unsigned repositories is misleading and it took quite some time to figure out the real problem. Therefore, I would expect an error message pointing at the real culprit, which in this case was missing disk space. --- After removing files from /tmp, apt-get update succeeds as expected: Get:1 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic InRelease [242 kB] Get:2 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates InRelease [88,7 kB] Get:3 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security InRelease [88,7 kB] Get:4 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-backports InRelease [74,6 kB] Get:5 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages [1.019 kB] Get:6 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main Translation-en [516 kB] Get:7 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/restricted amd64 Packages [9.184 B] Get:8 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/restricted Translation-en [3.584 B] Get:9 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe amd64 Packages [8.570 kB] Get:10 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security/main amd64 Packages [284 kB] Get:11 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security/main Translation-en [104 kB] Get:12 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security/restricted amd64 Packages [4.296 B] Get:13 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security/restricted Translation-en [2.192 B] Get:14 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe Translation-en [4.941 kB] Get:15 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/multiverse amd64 Packages [151 kB] Get:16 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/multiverse Translation-en [108 kB] Get:17 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/main amd64 Packages [560 kB] Get:18 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/main Translation-en [207 kB] Get:19 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/restricted amd64 Packages [6.996 B] Get:20 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/restricted Translation-en [3.076 B] Get:21 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/universe amd64 Packages [747 kB] Get:22 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/universe Translation-en [196 kB] Get:23 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/multiverse amd64 Packages [6.388 B] Get:24 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/multiverse Translation-en [3.452 B] Get:25 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-backports/main amd64 Packages [1.024 B] Get:26 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-backports/main Translation-en [448 B] Get:27 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-backports/universe amd64 Packages [3.468 B] Get:28 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-backports/universe Translation-en [1.604 B] Fetched 4.649 kB in 4s (1.266 kB/s) Reading package lists...
