Dear maintaner,
I failed to update normally from approx this morning, I don't know if it is
some type of temporary glitch. Here is a snippet from my 'apt update' command:
404 Not Found [IP: 192.168.22.22 9999]
Err:13 http://server:9999/security buster/updates Release
404 Not Found [IP: 192.168.22.22 9999]
Err:14 http://server:9999/debian buster-updates Release
404 Not Found [IP: 192.168.22.22 9999]
At the end of the output I got a bit of this:
E: The repository 'http://server:9999/debian buster Release' does not have a
Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore
disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration
details.
E: The repository 'http://server:9999/security buster/updates Release' does not
have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore
disabled by default.
I'd enabled logging in my /etc/approx/approx.conf so here is a snippet of my
daemon.log:

Hopefully it is a temporary artifact caused by some sort of syncing going on
somewhere, has anyone else had a similar issue?
Fealty,
