I recently changed username of my ubuntu account to "admin", earlier it used to be "sunbeam". Now I'm trying to install pylint using apt-get, but I'm getting the following error

I already used answers from How to change administrator username? to change my username from "sunbeam" to "admin" but now as I use the "apt-get" to install anything, it tries to fetch files from /home/sunbeam/subuntu1804/./repo/.. which clearly doesn't exist now as sunbeam is renamed to admin. So my question is how to install anything using apt-get as file paths have changed?



How can I fix the problem?

    Telling us how you 'changed' your username may be useful, as your paste looks like an incorrect entry in your sources (/etc/apt/sources*) or you need to modify those to reflect your new $HOME location as you possibly hard-coded the old directory in your path

  • @Ronald I've edited the question for clarity. My question isn't how to change username, it is now that I've changed username how to configure apt-get to install and fetch files from the new path?

  • @guiverc I followed steps in Eric Carvalho's answer askubuntu.com/a/228701/922228 to change administrator account's username

    If it contains your old username; edit the file & make it reflect the new directory (at a minimum) I'd use sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list but you can replace vim with your favorite editor. or use sed etc. If I've misunderstood your comment, sorry.

I already used answers from How to change administrator username? to change my username from "sunbeam" to "admin" but now as I use the "apt-get" to install anything, it tries to fetch files from /home/sunbeam/subuntu1804/./repo/.. which clearly doesn't exist now as sunbeam is renamed to admin. So my question is how to install anything using apt-get as file paths have changed?



How can I fix the problem?

    Telling us how you 'changed' your username may be useful, as your paste looks like an incorrect entry in your sources (/etc/apt/sources*) or you need to modify those to reflect your new $HOME location as you possibly hard-coded the old directory in your path

  • @Ronald I've edited the question for clarity. My question isn't how to change username, it is now that I've changed username how to configure apt-get to install and fetch files from the new path?

  • @guiverc I followed steps in Eric Carvalho's answer askubuntu.com/a/228701/922228 to change administrator account's username

    If it contains your old username; edit the file & make it reflect the new directory (at a minimum) I'd use sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list but you can replace vim with your favorite editor. or use sed etc. If I've misunderstood your comment, sorry.

I already used answers from How to change administrator username? to change my username from "sunbeam" to "admin" but now as I use the "apt-get" to install anything, it tries to fetch files from /home/sunbeam/subuntu1804/./repo/.. which clearly doesn't exist now as sunbeam is renamed to admin. So my question is how to install anything using apt-get as file paths have changed?



How can I fix the problem?

    Telling us how you 'changed' your username may be useful, as your paste looks like an incorrect entry in your sources (/etc/apt/sources*) or you need to modify those to reflect your new $HOME location as you possibly hard-coded the old directory in your path

    If it contains your old username; edit the file & make it reflect the new directory (at a minimum) I'd use sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list but you can replace vim with your favorite editor. or use sed etc. If I've misunderstood your comment, sorry.

The command

The fastest fix in my opinion is to edit the file & make it reflect the new directory. I would use



sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list


but you can replace vim with your favorite editor, or change the file with sed (stream-edit) etc.
