When I run apt-get update on Linux Devuan Beowulf I get:

Hit:1 http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf InRelease Hit:2 http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-security InRelease Hit:3 http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-updates InRelease Reading package lists... Done N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-sdklfflj/Packages' as repository 'http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'sdklfflj' N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-sdklfflj/Packages' as repository 'http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-security InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'sdklfflj' N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-sdklfflj/Packages' as repository 'http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-updates InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'sdklfflj' 

Any idea on what needs to be fixed/changed?

Note the /etc/apt/sources.list contains:

# # deb cdrom:[Devuan GNU/Linux 3.1 beowulf i386 - desktop 20210315]/ beowulf contrib main non-free #deb cdrom:[Devuan GNU/Linux 3.1 beowulf i386 - desktop 20210315]/ beowulf contrib main non-free deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf main deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf main deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-security main deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-security main # beowulf-updates, previously known as 'volatile' deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-updates main deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged beowulf-updates main

  • This indicates you've been adding some /etc/apt/ sources list, added that "random" string there, and then forgot about it. Undo that edit, and things will work. Commented Aug 7, 2022 at 20:43
  • I added the sources.list that exists ... Commented Aug 7, 2022 at 23:31

Please run dpkg --print-foreign-architectures.

If the output includes sdklfflj, then dpkg --remove-architecture skdlfflj should be the right fix for it.

But on the other hand, if dpkg --print-architecture outputs sdklfflj, then something might be more seriously wrong.
