Thanks. It's working fine this morning. I guess the server was offline or something.
And re-installing pulseaudio fixed my sound issues.

I don't see anything that is not correct, but I can state that at about the time that you were posting this, I was having some problems doing a regular update with similar "File not found" error messages.

I would try it again later before I tried changing anything.

I'm running Devuan Ascii 32 bit, and have been having trouble with audio (no sound!).
One of the solutions I found suggested that I remove and reinstall pulseaudio.
I ran sudo apt remove pulseaudio successfully. But when I try to run sudo apt install pulseaudio, I get this:

sudo apt update --fix-missing didn't help. And I do have a working internet connection.
My /etc/apt/sources.list file looks like this:

#deb cdrom:[devuan_ascii_2.0.0_i386_netinst]/ ascii main non-free

Can someone please help me with this?
