Repository errors on recent security update

I got a desktop notification today of a Debian security update, as that nifty little script does usually without issue.

Just now I went to the terminal and got this when I tried to fetch the list of updated packages :

Hit:1 https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm InRelease
Hit:2 https://deb.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security InRelease
Hit:3 https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates InRelease

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

What gives? Is this something to be concerned about? I'm not sure what I am looking at here.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the heads up. I missed that.

I ran update/upgrade yesterday and it fetched a security update package, but still returns those repo errors. Is this something I need to fix on my end, or something that will just go away when fixed on the repository end of things?

I just want to make sure I am not missing any updates.

edit : nevermind. I just saw the other thread about it.
