Description

@Zagur

When trying to access the official PPA from ppa.ipinfo.net, the server returns an HTTP 404 error. This prevents installing or updating packages from this repository on Ubuntu/Debian-based systems.

$ curl -I https://ppa.ipinfo.net
HTTP/2 404 
content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
vary: Accept-Encoding
x-content-type-options: nosniff
x-frame-options: DENY
x-xss-protection: 1; mode=block
content-length: 10

Expected behavior:

The PPA should return a package index or serve the required files for apt without returning a 404 error.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Run curl -I https://ppa.ipinfo.net
  • Notice it returns HTTP/2 404
  • Try running sudo apt update with this repository configured, observe that it fails.

Environment:

Ubuntu/Debian based on Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 (affects any version with this PPA configured)

Impact:

It is not possible to install or update the ipinfo package from the official Ubuntu/Debian PPA.
