hi at all,

just wanted to update dietpi and now I am getting this. does anybody have a hint?

UPDATE: found another dietpi forum thread where “apt update” is recommended.  
even that does not work.

A forum search for the error message should reveal following [Error installing or updating any software](https://dietpi.com/forum/t/error-installing-or-updating-any-software/14161)
