I am trying to install rar and unrar on an Ubuntu 22.04 system, which I believe are in multiverse (following some instructions that said to add all of multiverse, restricted, and universe).

I ran add-apt-repository multiverse, add-apt-repository restricted, and add-apt-repository universe, but after doing so and attempting to run apt update -y, I get the following warnings:

W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'multiverse/binary-amd64/Packages' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'multiverse' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'multiverse/i18n/Translation-en' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'multiverse' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'restricted/binary-amd64/Packages' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'restricted' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'restricted/i18n/Translation-en' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'restricted' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'universe/binary-amd64/Packages' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'universe' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'universe/i18n/Translation-en' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'universe' (component misspelt in sources.list?)

I have looked at similar questions, but all that I have found deal with prior Ubuntu releases or other repositories, and I'm not sure what my sources.list is supposed to look like after adding those repositories.

My sources.list file is:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy universe multiverse restricted main
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates universe multiverse restricted main
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy multiverse partner restricted universe

I tried adding [arch=amd64] after deb on each line, but this made no difference.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

    @Terrance country code isn't a requisite. archive.ubuntu.com does work. OP's problem is they have the Partner repositories set and trying to pull pockets that don't exist in it. – Thomas Ward May 02 '23 at 01:45
  • @ThomasWard Ah, you are right. Use it for faster access to the repos. =) – Terrance May 02 '23 at 01:46

Turns out the file has the wrong formatting.

The answer by user nobody here worked. https://askubuntu.com/a/1460166/1095763

In case it gets deleted, sources.list needs to be:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-security multiverse

    The formatting in the question is perfectly fine, your actual problem is that universe/multiverse/restricted don't apply to the http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu repository – muru May 02 '23 at 05:26
  • In the other answer, you also need to make sure that you state the part that universe/multiverse cannot work with main like restricted can. – Terrance May 04 '23 at 13:39
