Good day,
a solution for the index files problem, may be found here: Security Guide - Whonix
Have a nice day,

If you have Whonix 12, and the following error.
W: GPG error: http://ftp.us.debian.org
jessie Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG
8B48AD6246925553 Debian Archive Automatic Signing Key (7.0/wheezy) ftpmaster@debian.org
Then you or a script/program you used must have added the wheezy line to either /etc/apt/sources.list file or to a file inside the /etc/apt/sources.list.d folder. That does not happen on itself. Open that file with root rights and remove any unneeded repository.
( Template:Open with root rights - Whonix )
The two files coming with Whonix look like this:
- anon-shared-build-apt-sources-tpo/etc/apt/sources.list.d/torproject.list at master · Kicksecure/anon-shared-build-apt-sources-tpo · GitHub
- https://github.com/Whonix/anon-apt-sources-list/blob/master/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list
Also noticed when running the gateway although it runs fine it says “Failed to create encrypted swap file” What does that mean??
That it failed to create the encrypted swap file. It’s unrelated. Search what swap is. Search what encryption is. It’s not critical. Please do not post unrelated things in the same thread. Please search the forum before posting. Putting “Failed to create encrypted swap file” into the forum search comes up with that topic.

With all these problems do you think I should just use TBB until I have a laptop I can run Qubes on?
Not every random issue means the end of the world.
