Hey everyone, I just wanted to share this for those of you who are using snapshot repositories rather than Sid's bleeding-edge repos, either for stability reasons or to stay on older versions of Debian. When using any of the new snapshot repositories, you might encounter an error message indicating that the repository has expired, and updates and installs are disabled when running 'apt update' or 'apt upgrade.'
To bypass this issue and use the most recent snapshots, all you need to do is run the following command:
```
sudo apt -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false update
```
This command will bypass the expired GPG check and allow you to update and use that repository. You can also add this to your sources configuration file via:
```
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
```
I wanted to share this because the '[trusted=yes]' option no longer works with the new Debian snapshots. Enjoy! On a lighter note I also wanna thank Wicknix for all contributions made to the PowerPC Community and Jeroen Diederen the maintainer/creator of the Mint Linux PowerPC project for his outstanding work on on the Mint port of Debian. Thank you guys
