Some of my GitHub Actions workflows started recently to return this error when installing Chromedriver:
Get:1 http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates InRelease [65.4 kB]
Get:2 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster InRelease [122 kB]
Get:3 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates InRelease [51.9 kB]
Reading package lists...
E: Repository 'http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'stable' to 'oldstable'
E: Repository 'http://deb.debian.org/debian buster InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'stable' to 'oldstable'
E: Repository 'http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'stable-updates' to 'oldstable-updates'
Error: Process completed with exit code 100.
Here is my step implementation:

What I tried
-
I read from here and here that adding
sudo apt-get --allow-releaseinfo-change update
orsudo apt-get dist-upgrade
could resolve the problem, but even adding those to my workflow didn’t resolve it. -
I tried using this action setup-chromedriver but it returned the same error when following the documentation:
steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v2 - uses: nanasess/setup-chromedriver@master with: # Optional: do not specify to match Chrome's version chromedriver-version: '88.0.4324.96' - run: | export DISPLAY=:99 chromedriver --url-base=/wd/hub & sudo Xvfb -ac :99 -screen 0 1280x1024x24 > /dev/null 2>&1 & # optional
-
As it seems to be related to Debian 10 (Buster) (?) I also tried to use another Ubuntu runner version as a runner (
ubuntu-18.04
instead ofubuntu-latest
), but nothing changed, same error.
How can I resolve this issue?
Answer
I observed afterwards that the problem was happening at the first command : sudo apt-get update
(and I was adding the other command after…).
Substituting it for sudo apt-get --allow-releaseinfo-change update
resolved my problem.
Therefore the answer was not to add the sudo apt-get --allow-releaseinfo-change update
to the step executed commands, but substituting the sudo apt-get update
command for it.

I know you tried it with
but it worked for me.
This is my command in the dockerfile:
not required:
rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
FWIW, you may reduce your risk in using this option (
--allow-releaseinfo-change
) by addingspecialist options
to limit the fields you permit to bypassapt-secure
. Fromman apt-get
:For example, in the current bugaboo created by the delayed release of
bullseye
between the Debian and its derivativeRPi OS
, thespecialist option
would besuite
. This due to the fact that thesuite
label inbuster
has been changed fromstable
tooldstable
:
