Apt Security - Ubuntu MATE 16.04 action required

Announcements
1

:astonished: Debian and Ubuntu apt requirements are in the middle of a significant update. If you’re running Ubuntu MATE 16.04 you may need to take action!

apt in Debian Unstable and Ubuntu 16.04 now requires that repositories be signed with RSA keys using SHA256 or higher. Some 3rd party repositories don’t meet these requirements.

Currently the Google Music Manager, Google Talk Plugin, and SpiderOakONE repositories are affected and will cause graphical package and update managers to fail out right. So subscribe to Welcomes updates to ensure the applications above are no longer listed. Also it is recommended that if you’ve installed Google Music Manager, Google Talk Plugin or SpiderOakONE you uninstall them using Ubuntu MATE Welcome or disable their repositories in Software and Updates.

I spent last evening working with the Debian team to determine the extent of the issue and which 3rd party repositories are affected and what they need to do to become compliant. Thankfully the Google Chrome repository was updated yesterday. We’ll be contacting affected maintainers of the non-compliant repositories over the weekend.

Google Music Manager, Google Talk Plugin and SpiderOakONE are the only 3rd party repositories used by Ubuntu MATE Welcome that are not compliant with the new apt security requirements.

In case helpful, for those having trouble installing Tvheadend due apt update and Bintray sha1 signing, Bintray Support mention this should be fixed by the end of the week.

Ubuntu MAte 16.04, I do have the issue with SpideroakOne, how strange it is to see back “Hardy” in repositories !

E: Failed to fetch http://APT.spideroak.com/ubuntu-spideroak-hardy/dists/release/Release No Hash entry in Release file /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/APT.spideroak.com_ubuntu-spideroak-hardy_dists_release_Release which is considered strong enough for security purpose

I can do the update anyway, install software or this kind of admin things without trouble or issue.
Spideroak team could help ? Should we contact them ?
Thanks ! Ans sorry for my english …

Hi v3xx,

That where the strange things start. I always download on that link, on official website of Spideroak to install and activate my account.
Hi did installed the 6.1.3 version, has your link mention it.
So, i don’t get why i do have that particular mistake then, with “hardy” repositorie (if i get it well)

Lets see what you have going on :slight_smile:

Code:
tail -v -n +1 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
