All looks fine to me. I use to use the apt-get install Weewx method, is this message when I run sudo apt-get update an artefact of running that method? pi@Pi3-Weewx:~ $ sudo apt-get update Get:1 http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian buster InRelease [15.0 kB] Get:2 http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian buster InRelease [32.9 kB] Get:3 http://weewx.com/apt squeeze InRelease [3,910 B] Get:4 http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian buster/main armhf Packages [13.0 MB] Get:5 http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian buster/main armhf Packages [372 kB] Get:6 http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian buster/contrib armhf Packages [58.7 kB] Get:7 http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian buster/non-free armhf Packages [104 kB] Reading package lists...
