Certbot and ubuntu update error

Server
1

Hello!

I have ubuntu:

uname -a
Linux vm-01 3.2.0-67-generic #101-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 15 17:46:11 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION=“Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS”

When I run apt-get update, I have received an error:

Reading package lists… Done
W: Ignoring Provides line with DepCompareOp for package python-cffi-backend-api-max

W: Ignoring Provides line with DepCompareOp for package python3-cffi-backend-api-min
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

I have used this guide for install certbot on ubuntu: https://certbot.eff.org/#ubuntutrusty-apache

How can I fix this error?

Regards, Konstantin.

It’s a harmless warning.

The PPA package maintainer would have to make a small change to the package metadata to make it go away.

(Or you could disable the PPA.)

It should be safe to ignore the warning, though.
