I followed the instructions at https://support.plex.tv/articles/235974187-enable-repository-updating-for-supported-linux-server-distributions/ however I am getting the following error when I try to do an sudo apt-get update.

This is withdeb https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb public main in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/plexmediaserver.list:

user@host:/tmp$ sudo apt-get update
...
Hit:6 https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb public InRelease                                                            
...
Reading package lists... Done                     
W: Conflicting distribution: https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb public InRelease (expected public but got )

If I try deb https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb ./public main I get this error:

nacho@desk:~$ sudo apt-get update
...
Ign:9 https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb ./public InRelease

E: The repository 'https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb ./public Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

Not sure what to do…

Just ignore the warning (!) with deb https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb public main. There is nothing to do for you. Everything still works.
