Please describe your issue below:

I can’t run apt-get dist-upgrade anymore. We are using Ansible to manage nodes, so I need to shorten the logs for readability. The relevant lines are:

This looks like a server or package content issue to me - any clues?

Easy fix which I found today:

Download the 1.3 package. I downloaded through Chrome and WinSCP’d the file to the VIM3.

You could probably just do:

wget https://dl.khadas.com/repos/vim3/pool/main/l/linux-u-boot-vim3-mainline/linux-u-boot-vim3-mainline_1.3-v2021.04_arm64.deb

sudo dpkg -i linux-u-boot-vim3-mainline_1.3-v2021.04_arm64.deb

That should let you install it without issues. Worked for me and survived a reboot as well.

It is fixed now, can you try again?

4

I just run apt-get dist-upgrade via Ansible again and the same issue is still present - unfortunately.

5

Please run sudo apt update first.

6

Sorry for not being more explicit: In fact, we do that. However, nothing has changed - the command is still failing with the exact same output. I even ran apt-get clean - the result is still the exact same error message.
