    I set up a VM for Jamulus on Google Cloud Platform with the help of the YouTube video "Jamulus server on GCP quick start video" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9anNmobd5aY)

    However, I got several errors when attempting to install necessary packages via the command accompanying the video:
    "sudo apt-get install build-essential qt5-qmake qtdeclarative5-dev qt5-default qttools5-dev-tools git"

    Err:1 http://security.debian.org stretch/updates/main amd64 libproxy1v5 amd64 0.4.14-2+deb9u1
    404 Not Found
    E: Failed to fetch http://security.debian.org/pool/updates/main/libp/libproxy/libproxy1v5_0.4.14-2+deb9u1_amd64.deb
    404 Not Found

    I couldn't proceed further. Any suggestions?

      Try doing a sudo apt update then re-run the apt-get install?

    Thanks for the tip - the actual command was "sudo apt upgrade". After that all went fine!

      update and upgrade do totally different things, however if you succeeded, that's good ;) .

    Update simply told me which packages I had that could be upgraded. Upgrade actually did the upgrade.

      I think if you were getting 404s before, then it may just gave been temporary anyway. Update before upgrade is always worth doing though as apt cache on a new cloud server will be out of date if it's there at all.
