I am trying to update my ubuntu with the fillowing command
sudo apt-get update
But everytime it fails and gives following error -
W: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/fossfreedom/byzanz/ubuntu yakkety Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
E: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/fossfreedom/byzanz/ubuntu/dists/yakkety/main/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
So far i tried every solution given on this website but none of them worked.
The prolem started when i tried to install Byzanz software to record my screen by following the steps given in this link - How can I record my screen?
Please tell me how to fix this problem.
This probably happens due do a connection problem or something else gone wrong (i.e. this repository does not have a release file because there might be no version for 16.10 build maybe). However you can remove this repository by:
sudo apt-add-repository --remove ppa:fossfreedom/byzanz
This will turn the update process back to normal and remove the entry from your sources.list
file.
