Zorin OS Focal: Can't sudo apt-update after the installation of wine and Playonlinux
Dear Linux-community,
When i execute sudo apt-get update, after the installation of Wine and Playonlinux - The terminal shows the following:

Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig
E: Das Depot »http://ppa.launchpad.net/pipelight/stable/ubuntu focal Release« enthält keine Release-Datei.
N: Eine Aktualisierung von solch einem Depot kann nicht auf eine sichere Art durchgeführt werden, daher ist es standardmäßig deaktiviert.
N: Weitere Details zur Erzeugung von Paketdepots sowie zu deren Benutzerkonfiguration finden Sie in der Handbuchseite apt-secure(8).
You put a # at the beginning of the line indicated, the ppa for pipelight. You need root (sudo) privileges to open the file in a text editor and save the change and then run the update command again.
This message about the repository (not a standard repo, I notice) might give members further guidance as to what is going wrong:
Quote:
The repository »http://ppa.launchpad.net/pipelight/stable/ubuntu focal Release« contains no Release-File.
N: Updating from such a repository cannot be carried out securely, so it is normally deactivated.
N: Further details for creation of package repositories and their user configuration are found in the apt-secure(8) man page.
I would not recommend the use of such external repositories for users who aren't yet comfortable with the apt package manager. At best it complicates your system, and at worst it can create incompatibilities between packages (a "frankendebian").
My understanding of this problem is that the ppa was installed on a specific release version of the system and the version has been updated but the ppa software has not been updated hence the no release file error.
