    Out of Date / Broken Repository Setup?

    Don't ask me. I'm posting this on the advice from a member much smarter than I.

    Here's his comment followed by what drove him to make the comment:

    "It looks like you have an out of date or broken repository set up either in /etc/apt/sources.list or in the directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d which is causing

    Code:
    W: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release  Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
    
    
    E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

    He then posted this final comment: "It is probably worth starting a new thread about that, posting the message and your sources.list file so it can be sorted out."

    I have no idea where the sources.list file is therefore can't post it.

    It is in
    /etc/apt
    and so it is the file:
    /etc/apt/sources.list

      I have 3:

      sources.list.d
      sources.list
      sources.list.save

      If I open sources.list, it launches KDE Sudo. I enter my password and that then launches Software and Updates.

        In Konsole Terminal do: sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list

        Google has stopped supporting 32bit Chrome. 64bit only.

            I'm not seeing a Google entry in the sources.list which probably means that it is stored as a file in the directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d. Can you run the following commands and post the output please?

            Code:
            cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d
            ls

              It looks like it is in system.list.d

              How about? sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list

              If it shows there I *think* it is safe to delete that file

                If it shows there I *think* it is safe to delete that file
                I'd move it somewhere first as in

                Code:
                sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list ~/google-chrome.list
                sudo apt update
                assuming that's the file name. Just in case something goes hinkey!

                  Googling the actual error helps, a little bit, as well:
                  google no longer supports 32 bit Chrome, and there are no packages for it any longer, which is what is causing the error. The 32 bit repo is no longer available, but having the entry for google chrome is making apt to still be looking for it.

                  Are you running a 32 bit or 64 bit system? (32 bit applications can run on either)

                  You will have to remove the google chrome repo that was added when the browser package was installed:

                  Open Discover and go to the hamburger menu:

                  You won't get updates to chrome any more, unless you either install the 64 bit browser on a 64 bit system.
                  If you are running 64 bit, uninstall chrome, and download and install a fresh 64 bit linux deb.

                  If you are using a 32 bit system, you either will have to do without chrome updates, use a different browser, or reinstall your system using 64 bit iso.

                              If you have a look at post #8 in this thread I suggest moving the chrome file to your home directory and updating your apt cache again. If you are happier with a GUI, then @claydoh's suggestion will also remove the errant repository. The error is occurring because the link to the repository is broken, clicking it here will give a 404 not found page on Google http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/
