Error during update

[bahman]

I am recently receiving this error:

Ign:8 https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu focal InRelease
Err:9 https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu focal Release
Could not handshake: Error in the pull function. [IP: 151.101.66.217 443]
Reading package lists... Done
E: The repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu focal Release' no longer has a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

It seems that the release file is no longer available. I don't know what to do. Thanks for your time and help in advance.

It looks like the file is on the server.
If this is still the case after a day, file a bug report.

Yes, I can see the file on the server. I sent a bug report. Thanks for your information.

As a workaround, you can download and install the 4 WineHQ deb packages manually and install them with dpkg -i

Code: Select all

(Replace <branch> with stable, devel or staging. <version> with the desired version)

Download: - winehq-<branch>_<version>~focal-1_amd64.deb
          - wine-<branch>_<version>~focal-1_amd64.deb
          - wine-<branch>-amd64_<version>~focal-1_amd64.deb
          - wine-<branch>-i386_<version>~focal-1_i386.deb

Install:
sudo dpkg -i winehq-<branch>_<version>~focal-1_amd64.deb wine-<branch>_<version>~focal-1_amd64.deb wine-<branch>-amd64_<version>~focal-1_amd64.deb wine-<branch>-i386_<version>~focal-1_i386.deb
