Environment
- Sympl Version [10.0]:
- Sympl Testing Version? [No]
- Debian Version [Buster]:
- Hardware Type? [Pi]
- Hosted On? [lan]
Can you paste the output of dpkg -l 'sympl*'?
And has anything at all changed recently like swapping to a different Debian release/arch or similar?
It may be worth trying to flush the Debian package cache, as it sounds like something there is not right, but as a stopgap you may be able to download and install it manually with dpkg from Index of /mythic/pool/main/s.

Think I fixed it. Noticed there were missing keys, so I tried
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 04EE7237B7D453EC
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 648ACFD622F3D138
and then apt-get update && apt-get upgrade seems to be working
sudo dpkg -l 'sympl*'

Not sure what caused that, but there are no sympl-core specific arch packages, as it’s for ‘all’ architectures, so it may be a corruption of the local APT cache or similar.
(Edit: Also, you can stick logs/output between two lines with just ``` on, and it’ll treat all it as monospaced which makes it much easier to read).
Just testing

like this?

Interesting. Pressing the ’ key (unshifted @) three times didn’t work
So I copied and pasted yours and it did work.
what about this? This is the one at the top left, under Esc
@hairydog - it’s the ‘backtick’ character, usually used for quoting code and other things (and can be used in bash for command substitution, like echo "i am `whoami`", similar to wrapping things in $())
