Beginners Questions • [O/S] Shouldn't this work? Mirrors

$
0
0
I have new install of Bookworm with Gnome. All packages have been updated.

I am trying to switch to a local mirror, but no matter which mirror I choose I get the same error. What am I doing wrong?

I open "Software & Updates" and pick something from "Download from". I've tried a bunch of different ones, they all give the same error:

Code:

sudo apt updateHit:1 http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-backports InReleaseHit:2 https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm InRelease   Hit:3 https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates InReleaseIgn:4 https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-security InReleaseErr:5 https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-security Release  404  Not Found [IP: 151.101.246.132 443]Reading package lists... DoneE: The repository 'https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-security 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.
There is also another app, "Software", which has a menu option "Software Repositories" that open the same window as "Software & Updates". Same behaviour.

What am I doing wrong? Surely this should work? I can manually fix it by changing the security lines in /etc/apt/sources.list to:

Code:

deb https://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main non-free-firmwaredeb-src https://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main non-free-firmware
but as soon as I try to change the mirror in the GUI-app it breaks again.
Edit: None of these apps to change mirrors were installed by me; they came bundles with Debian/Bookworm/Gnome.
