Title: Cannot connect to the source when updating
Post by: alexsid on 2026/04/14, 16:44:19
Hi all!

I do sudo apt update

The line:
debian.map.fastly.net (146.75.122.132)
just hangs. And no update. Is it only me or is this a global glitch?

I also can ping the source with the same result. But it still hangs while updating,

It seems
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
cannot be used anymore (when I use the command, I see the empty file)
So,
how can I change the mirror for my updates?
Is it possible to choose a mirror manually in Siduction?

Look at /etc/apt/sources.list.d.

Look at /etc/apt/sources.list.d.
It does not help.

1. debian.map.fastly.net (146.75.122.132) is located in Germany. Is it Siduction server? I cannot find it in my sources.list.d folder.
2. What if I want to choose a mirror manually on Siduction. Can I do it? In EndeavourOS I can. What about Siduction? How to rank mirrors? Are they ranked automatically?

By the way Debian Stable updates don't work on iDealOS (MX-linux fork) and on Q4OS - based on Debian Trixie for me today. EndeavourOS updates smoothly.

1. Please show the content of the directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d, what files do you have there?
ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list.d
2. Please show the full content of the file responsible for debian (in my case that would be debian.sources)
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.sources
debian.map.fastly.net is not connected with siduction, it is a debian mirror.

Irgendwoher muss die Info

>  debian.map.fastly.net (146.75.122.132)

ja schließlich kommen. Und mit diesem Server stimmt 'was nicht.

Kannst Du mit

$ sudo grep -r  debian.map.fastly.net /etc/*

nach einem Eintrag dieser Art suchen?

A shot in the dark,
Change 'https://deb/...' into 'http://deb/.../'

If nothing works, then try:
www.debian.org/mirror/list

or/and read:
https://deb.debian.org/

Du kannst auch nala fetch probieren und einen oder mehrere Spiegelserver auswählen.

You can also try nala fetch and select one or more mirror servers.

"fastly" comes from "ftp.debian.org" (and similar) and is - to my knowledge - a (kind of) CDN (content delivery network).

> host ftp.debian.org
ftp.debian.org is an alias for debian.map.fastlydns.net.
debian.map.fastlydns.net has address 146.75.122.132
debian.map.fastlydns.net has IPv6 address 2a04:4e42:8e::644

https://deb.debian.org  works just fine here, in browser and in apt

The issue somehow disappeared. I have no idea why did it emerge and then disappear.
