Skipping acquire of configured file multiverse/restricted/universe in Ubuntu 22.04

I am trying to install rar and unrar on an Ubuntu 22.04 system, which I believe are in multiverse (following some instructions that said to add all of multiverse, restricted, and universe).

I ran add-apt-repository multiverse, add-apt-repository restricted, and add-apt-repository universe, but after doing so and attempting to run apt update -y, I get the following warnings:

W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'multiverse/binary-amd64/Packages' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'multiverse' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'multiverse/i18n/Translation-en' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'multiverse' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'restricted/binary-amd64/Packages' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'restricted' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'restricted/i18n/Translation-en' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'restricted' (component misspelt in sources.list?)

W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'universe/i18n/Translation-en' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'universe' (component misspelt in sources.list?)

I have looked at similar questions, but all that I have found deal with prior Ubuntu releases or other repositories, and I'm not sure what my sources.list is supposed to look like after adding those repositories.

My sources.list file is:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy universe multiverse restricted main
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates universe multiverse restricted main
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy multiverse partner restricted universe

I tried adding [arch=amd64] after deb on each line, but this made no difference.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

@Terrance country code *isn't* a requisite. `archive.ubuntu.com` does work. OP's problem is they have the Partner repositories set and trying to pull pockets that don't exist in it.

@ThomasWard Ah, you are right. Use it for faster access to the repos. =)

Turns out the file has the wrong formatting.

The answer by user nobody here worked. https://askubuntu.com/a/1460166/1095763

In case it gets deleted, sources.list needs to be:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security multiverse

The formatting in the question is perfectly fine, your actual problem is that `universe`/`multiverse`/`restricted` don't apply to the `http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu` repository

In the other answer, you also need to make sure that you state the part that `universe`/`multiverse` cannot work with `main` like `restricted` can.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
