Hi everybody,
i managed to install signal messenger until recently the app told me that this version is old and i need to upgrade.
Trying to do so i put such a mess in my files and now im completely lost when i try to install signal again in my debian template i have these messages:
Target Packages (main/binary-amd64/Packages) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-desktop.list:1 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-xenial.list:1
W: Target Packages (main/binary-all/Packages) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-desktop.list:1 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-xenial.list:1
W: Target Translations (main/i18n/Translation-en_US) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-desktop.list:1 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-xenial.list:1
W: Target Translations (main/i18n/Translation-en) is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-desktop.list:1 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-xenial.list:1
Im very noob about all this, is anyone could just tell me step by step what command line i need to enter and where exactly please?
thank you
It explicitly says that there’s a duplicate, keep only one of the two files (/etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-xenial.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d/signal-desktop.list).
Run only one of these:
Hit:1 Index of /debian bullseye InRelease
Hit:2 Index of /r4.1/vm/ bullseye InRelease
Hit:3 https://updates.signal.org/desktop/apt xenial InRelease
Get:4 https://deb.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security InRelease [48.4 kB]
Err:3 https://updates.signal.org/desktop/apt xenial InRelease
The following signatures couldn’t be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY D980A17457F6FB06

Reading package lists… Done
W: An error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used.

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
Install Signal inside the template with sudo apt install signal-desktop. Then stop the template, create a new qube based on that template and add Signal in the application list.
When it’s done, you’ll be able to start the newly created qube with Signal from the menu.
thank you so much it worked!
Please can you tell me where can i go to learn about all this and try to understand just the thing that we did?
Again thank you so much!!
This is mostly classic linux stuff. You can search for the binaries you used, like apt and curl, in any search engine and read their documentation. For anything related to Qubes, you can also check the official documentation. Read the “Getting started” section in particular:
