Hi,
the trick is not only remove the enterprise repo, but add the pve-no-subscription list too:
Code:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-no-subscription.list
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve stretch pve-no-subscription
"apt update && apt dist-upgrade" should then do the "magic".

udo, thanks. thats the exact first steps i took upon fresh install 'cp pve-enterprise.list pve-no-subscription.list' then 'apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y' and still seeing errors.

something must be getting through though because this all came about when i was trying to add the turnkey linux templates and they are now showing in my template list so this all may be for not, but it bugs me to leave something undone.
 
apt commands complete successfully, the 'pveam update' command fails with the same errors as OP posted. Seems like something to do with Perl, maybe?

Hi,
how looks the output of following commands?
Code:
pveversion -v
dpkg -l | grep pve
