The definition for your apt.postgresql.org repo is defined in one of two possible places. Let's find it...

In terminal...

sudo grep -i postgresql /etc/apt/sources.list

or

sudo grep -i postgresql /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list

You'll get a hit on one of the above commands.

Let's edit the file...

sudo -H gedit /etc/apt/sources.list (ignore any warning messages)

or

sudo -H gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/found_filename.list (ignore any warning messages)

Find the line that starts with...

deb https://blah blah blah

And change it to...

deb [arch=amd64] https://blah blah blah

Save the file and quit the editor.

Now sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade will run without the noise.
