Thank you for replying. While I don't have duplicates of the dotdeb it seems that when I attempted to remove nginx after removing these repositories I kept getting warnings that dependencies belonging to dotdeb were still being called out. That makes me think I screwed up removing the repository.
So I ran apt-get autoremove and then update seemed to clear it out, thx, sam On Thursday, November 17, 2016 at 6:27:55 AM UTC-6, Brandon Bradley wrote: > > Hey Sam! > > Have you looked at all your entries in sources.list and sources.list.d? > You might have had multiple entries of the dotdeb repo. > > P.S.
