Hi, as I said in my introduction message I'm trying to install Mozilla Firefox on my Chromebook, in order to do so I must install Flatpak using the Linux Terminal, when I type the command "sudo apt install flatpak" I get this message

Could somebody help me fixing this

?

I guess you can't install any new debian packages Anthony - perhaps your net is down for some reason or debian server address changed (seems unlikely). No name server it seems or you have to update a mirror list of repos. It's a net problem: I would get something like that in Artix if I forgot to start connmand or had to update repo-list with pacman -Sy. Try pinging your modem, then debian.

did you run apt update before apt install?

I can confirm the 404 errors for these files, and my internet works.

Yes, please run

Code:

apt update

(and show us) before you try to install anything.

Debian's software upgrade process is twofold:

first you update the list of applications/versions with

Code:

apt update

But if you want to upgrade all installed software to its newest version, you need to issue

Code:

apt upgrade

after that.

You will often see it written like this:

Code:

apt update && apt upgrade
