Debian 6.0.5 (64 bit)/KDE 4.4.5 I have just migrated to Debian and would like to implement Multiarch. According to the Debian Wiki it is present in dkpg since 1.16.2. However, the version in my installation is 1.15.8.3.
When I try to update the Synaptic Package Manager I get some error messages that don't mean anything to me at this stage in my understanding (?). Here are the error messages: Ignoring file 'opera.list.save' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension Ignoring file 'opera.list.save' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension GPG error: http://cran.case.edu squeeze-cran/ Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 06F90DE5381BA480GPG error: http://www.deb.us.multimedia.org squeeze Release: The following signatures were invalid: NODATA 1 NODATA 2 Failed to fetch http://www.deb.us.multimedia.org/dists/squeeze/main/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2 Sub-process /bin/bzip2 returned an error code (2) Failed to fetch http://www.deb.us.multimedia.org/dists/squeeze/non-free/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2 Sub-process /bin/bzip2 returned an error code (2) Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
