Done N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386' W: Failed to fetch file:/var/cache/apt-build/repository/dists/apt-build/main/binary-i386/Packages File not found - /var/cache/apt-build/repository/dists/apt-build/main/binary-i386/Packages (2: No such file or directory) E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. I then checked the repository directory: root@rhubarb:/var/cache/apt-build/build# ls /var/cache/apt-build/repository dists Packages.gz Release I then tried the command root@rhubarb:/var/cache/apt-build/build# apt-build build-source adun.app E: Unable to find a source package for adun.app Some error occured building package What I am doing wrong here?
