Core 192 rpi 4 b 8 GB - pakfire: empty list

Gentlemen,

installed core 192 from scratch yesterday.

Installing addons failed because pakfire does not find anything.

May this be caused by only one mirror? How can I change the mirror?

pakfire message:

This is not an issue with the mirror. The download from the mirror worked.

You got a HTTP Status Code 200 from the download.

The problem was from the verification of the downloaded list which failed. The two most likely issues here are that the time on your IPFire system is too far off causing an issue with the certificate encryprtion verification or that the DNS server has some problems.

Those two are the most likely issues giving the message that you have received.

Hi Adolf,

I’ve got an empty trustdb.gpg, too.

Put my screenshot into here:
