Hash and size mismatch with http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/dists/bionic-updates/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz

[Gabriel M. Beddingfield]

When adding the debug repos, I am getting:

E: Failed to fetch http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/dists/bionic-updates/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz File has unexpected size (795886 != 795487). Mirror sync in progress? [IP: 91.189.91.49 80]

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

When I manually go to the repositories... many (all?) of the hashes listed in http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/dists/bionic-updates/Release do not match the files (e.g. http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/dists/bionic-updates/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz )

Note: I filed this against `apt` because `ubuntu-bug` forced me to specify a package and I didn't know any other way to file the bug.

I just filed a similar bug affecting Ubuntu 20.04 Focal:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1976233

There seems to be a problem with a recent update of the ddebs repositories.

[Gabriel M. Beddingfield (gabrbedd)]

Yep, this affects all versions. FWIW, the ddebs repository seems to break
like this every 1-2 years and after reporting it, it's usually cleaned up
in a week or two.

This seems to be fixed, now.

This now happens for noble:
