I am currently running debian 8 jessie as my linux distro, and have been following this link to install HHVM https://docs.hhvm.com/hhvm/installation/linux the first two lines I have successfully carried out, however when I try to do a sudo apt-get update I get this error:

W: Failed to fetch http://dl.hhvm.com/debian/dists/jessie/InRelease Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-mipsel/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Here is the whole trace:

The HHVM repository you're using only provides binaries for amd64 and i386, not mipsel.

  • Does that mean I have no other choice but to build from source? or is there a way around this? May 14, 2016 at 21:39
  • You could always ask the HHVM to provide mipsel binaries, but I doubt they'd be all that interested. Realistically you'll likely need to build from source. May 14, 2016 at 22:14
