Unusual errors during apt-get update
Hello everyone,
A few hours ago I ran apt-get update and ran into the following error
messages:
"""
Err:8 http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie-updates/main Sources.diff/Index
Need 2877 compressed bytes, but limit is 2788 and original is 2788

"""
Reexecuting the command worked correctly. After this I wanted to learn
more, but the only reference to such errors I could find online was the
following thread on the debian subreddit where another user reported
encountering the same issue recently:
https://old.reddit.com/r/debian/comments/1ndt5wp/131_trixie_apt_shows_errors_need_5956_compressed/
There doesn't seem to be anything actually wrong but this seems very
unusual. I'm curious as to what might have caused this error, or whether
it might be indicative of a larger problem.
Thanks,
