Hi,
I have downloaded the latest Debian version (as at 10/02/2018) from Orange Pi, and installed it and have it up and running on my Orange Pi Zero (H2+) board. I see though that it appears to be quite old (last updated late 2016). When I try to run sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade, the firmware fails to upgrade, and I get the following warnings:

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

Note the last line states I should run apt-get update, but that's exactly what I have just done! Reading online it appears the security keys may be out of date for this version. As such, it is unable to update itself.
I need to run an update so I can also install curl, but again, when I try to install curl, I get the same errors seen above. This more or less renders Debian a useless alternative as an OS for the Orange Pi Zero, as I cannot work with such a dated system. How do we go about updating Debian?

Graham
