What I have tried

  • I checked the sources.list file and couldn't find the entries that are in the warning
  • I also checked sources.list.d directory, and the directory is empty
sudo apt-get install --reinstall ca-certificates
sudo apt-get update --fix-missing

sudo mv sources.list.d/ sources.list.d.backup/
sudo mv sources.list sources.list.backup

sudo apt-get clean all

sudo apt-get update --fix-missing
sudo apt-get install --reinstall ca-certificates

I also want to note that I upgraded my OS from ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 about two months ago.

`/etc/apt/sources.list:40 and /etc/apt/sources.list:54` means that line 40 and line 54 match in the `/etc/apt/sources.list` file.

You have many duplicate lines in the sources.list . Remove them.

As I stated in my question, I have checked the file and there are no duplicates.

@Terrance - you are right. I took a second look and found that the lines were identical. I think the initial confusion was that there was a comment at the end of line 54, so I didn't pick that. Thanks.

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.
