How I got apt update and install to work (with Debian Jessie retired)
OK, so I started off creating my own local Debian repository. Not recommended -- it's a lot of work. But with a lot of Googling and experimenting, I finally got apt to work using an online source. ...
Thanks for that - yes I clearly did miss the obvious!
I encountered the horrors of VI.
Obviously designed by a committed sadist, or someone to whom the idea of 'user experience' was an incomprehensible concept ; No obvious way to incorporate colons on any line of text - as is required when creating the apt.conf text file - without this being interpreted as an VI editor command.
Ended up doing via FileZilla (which invoked notepad for editing), which avoided any nasty Linux cli stuff, and retains existing file permissions when altered file is resaved.
However with both files now in place, and identical to your examples (via cut and paste), and with ReadyNAS rebooted, I still cannot seem to install the Docker app via the 'Available Apps' menu in OS6.
I also see that after ReadyNAS reboot I am suddenly I am being given 'Not secure' warnings by my browser when accessing ReadyNAS webpage, and the icons previously associated with the available apps in OS6 are now showing as broken links
I tried 'apt update' in Putty, and now after NAS reboot, the app icons appear again, but still installation of docker app fails in OS6, about halfway through the loading progress indicator, when the installation dialog hits 'reading 9 of 9'.
Wonder if there is a clue in the results of the apt update command I naively issued? What do I do about the 'Key expired' warnings?
