How can I remove from my source list because I don't need it anymore

Solution 1

According to the docker page for Ubuntu, the problem is that it should be https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu instead of https://download.docker.com/linux/debian.

Run the following command to fix this:

sudo sed -i 's/debian/ubuntu/g' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list
sudo apt update

However, if that doesn't fix the issue, run the following command:

sudo sed -i 's|docker.com/linux/debian|docker.com/linux/ubuntu|g' /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt update

Solution 2

I have used the following in Linux Mint:

1. Determine the Ubuntu codename using the command below (and NOT the version codename):

   $ cat /etc/os-release | grep -i codename
   VERSION_CODENAME=una
   UBUNTU_CODENAME=focal
   

2. Replace the Ubuntu codename in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list:

   https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu <CODENAME> stable
   

   In my case the command on docker website has set the codename to una (docker determines it using lsb_release -cs), but I had to change it to focal.

Greetings. LM is not Ubuntu. It is off topic here.
