Solution 1 :
Here I am trying to use the simple Linux command
Step 1: Open the terminal box and type the below command:
sudo apt-get update
After that it will update all security, fetching packages in the Linux operating system.
If the above first resolution is not working then we will go with the second resolution.
Solution 2:
Open the terminal box and then type the below command
sudo apt-get clean
It will clean some of the unnecessary packages in the Linux machine.
After that, you will execute the package update command again
sudo apt-get update
The above resolutions are very simple to resolve this type of issue in the Linux or RedHat machines.
