I have noticed that after installing qTox and its repository, that when running the commands (and it's either at the end of the first one, or at the beginning of the second one, sorry, but I cannot tell, and it does not happen every time I run them):

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

That part of the output is this:

W: Size of file /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/repo.tox.im_dists_nightly_Release.gpg is not what the server reported 473 168

I used the following shell script provided here to add the repository and the GPG key:

#remove old key
sudo apt-key del 0C2E03A0

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb https://repo.tox.im/ nightly main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tox.list'
wget -qO - https://repo.tox.im/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https
sudo apt-get update -qq
echo "Tox Repository Installed."
echo "You can now install utox, qtox, toxic, ratox and tox-bootstrapd"

So what does this error message mean? And do I need to do anything about it?

I have not run a test on 15.04 yet. But, it sounds like something went wrong with the adding of the ppa. Could you try and remove everything (q)tox related. Add the ppa again, install qtox, and run update. If that fixes things, great. I will also test the tox repo on Ubuntu 15.04 later on.

Here is how to remove anything tox related:

Terminal

First remove the ppa:

  • sudo add-apt-repository --remove "deb https://repo.tox.im/ nightly main"

Then purge qtox:

  • sudo apt-get purge qtox

Remove/clean/configure left over files

  • sudo apt-get autoremove

  • sudo apt-get clean

  • sudo dpkg --configure -a

GUI

  • Go to the dash, search for Software & Updates, open it
  • Click on the Authentication tab, Remove the TOX RELENG... key
  • Got to Other Software tab, remove the https://repo.tox.im/
  • Click close it will then ask you to reload,do that.
  • and then - in the terminal - run sudo apt-get purge qtox also others that you may have installed.
  • Clean stuff up with: sudo apt-get autoremove.

Now, you can try installing Tox again!
