Hi, You can try to replace in /etc/apt/sources.list or using Synaptic changing distribution in Settings/Repositories
wheezy/updates by wheezy Remember, you can see in a browser that the following URL http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy/updates/main/source/Sources doesn't exists. Once you had done the change execute apt-get update or press Reload in Synaptic Good luck Regards On Fri, 2016-04-15 at 13:06 -0400, Stephen P.
