Since saturday the do-agent seems to have trouble updating. Every hour it tries and then logs this to my syslog: gbol5 do-agent[1429]: 2017/07/24 07:11:58 Unable to update do-agent: Update: Error initializing repository: tuf: failed to decode root.json: expired at 2017-07-22 15:27:54 +0000 UTC Is there any way to fix it? Right now I’m getting an E-Mail notification about this update error every time and it starts to clutter my postbox…

Have the exact same error, nothing I did helped.
Mine is borked too…
Even did full clean-up and re-install, nothing Unable to update do-agent: Update: Error initializing repository: tuf: failed to decode root.json: expired at 2017-07-22 15:27:54 +0000 UTC
You can add something like
do-agent\[[0-9]+\]: [0-9/: ]{19} Unable to update do-agent: Update: Error initializing repository: tuf: failed to decode root.json.*to a file in
/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/to filter these messages from the logchecker output.
