Can't update packages on retrorange Pi 4.2 full version

Closed this issue · 7 comments

Hi!

In the retrostone console, which has retrorange pi v. 4.2 full version installed, from last week until today, when I try sudo apt update I've found the following errors:

`pi@RetrOrangePi:~$ sudo apt update

I was considering to update from jessie to stretch changing the distro word on /etc/apt/sources.list, but I don't know if that will work.

Any idea on how to solve this?

Note that i am not even able to connect to any websites.
including google.com
is this #47
definitely related?

look here http://orangepi.club/showthread.php?tid=3109

i have readed jessie debian is end of life! the update source dont work more

That is what I supposed, but the other jessie repositories works fine, only the jessie-backports and jessie-updates does not work

From EmulationStation - Retropie - RetrOrangePi section,
select 'Update RetrOrangePi' . It will fetch new repositories info.

Please also update RetroPie-Setup script

Thanks!

How do i do that if my device cannot resolve a DNS?

There is not a perfect solution, as it's messed up in Debian Jessie.

Things to try:

Depending on the board, it magically works after you remove an interface with "sudo ifconfig eth0 down" but you can also try try reconfiguring the resolvconf package with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf" or editing network settings with "sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces" , remove the eth0 portion or "sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf", under [main] section , change to 'dns=dnsmasq' and/or under [ifupdown] section , change to 'managed=true'.

after any change, run "sudo service network-manager restart"
