Package: mirrors Hi,
I'm the creator and maintainer of the `setup-wsl` GitHub action. To test my action and verify it still works as expected, I regularly run various tests with my action once a day. Some of these tests include that with a Debian distribution an `apt-get upgrade --yes` is executed. Since quite some time this fails occasionally with download errors and I need to rerun the tests 1-5 times to get them all to pass. This is only happening with the Debian-based tests which also happens to be the default distribution for my action. So it seems to me, that since some time the Debian package servers became unreliable. This worked fine for the last 5 years and just started to happen a while ago. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you since when exactly this happened, as I did not have time to investigate or report yet and for the older builds there is also no logs available anymore, but now also my users started to complain and ask for a retry-mechanism. Up to now I hoped I don't need to implement a retry but the servers will stabilize again. One of these failures from today is for example https://github.com/Vampire/setup-wsl/actions/runs/15891138398/job/44813849258#step:3:143 . Afair it happens since around mid of March, maybe since March 21st 2025, judging by the minimal log available for that test run. On March 29th 2025 it definitely was that error, for that the log is still available: https://github.com/Vampire/setup-wsl/actions/runs/14140894943/job/39622047540#step:3:128 . Although both linked examples are for security.debian.org, it is not the only one failing, here you have one from March 30th 2025 that failed on deb.debian.org: https://github.com/Vampire/setup-wsl/actions/runs/14151457418/job/39645241285#step:3:128 . Cheers Björn
