In addition to the problem with the Debian signed packages encountered here, there is another bug in 1.0.10 that causes it to fail to connect to other nodes. So, we recommend that users stick with 1.0.9 for now, and then upgrade to 1.0.10-1, which will also fix the package signature problem, when it is released.

I upgraded my Debian to Stretch (Debian 9) with a new fresh install from dvd.
When I tried to install zcash using the info from Home Ā· zcash/zcash Wiki Ā· GitHub it failed when installing ā€œapt-get install zcashā€

Err:6 https://apt.z.cash jessie InRelease

To solve this problem I downloaded the zcash-1.0.10-1-amd64.deb package directly from
https://apt.z.cash/pool/main/z/zcash/

it works. But I have no idea why it failed.
