It almost certainly isn't.

Packages only exist in the Debian package pool as long as they are required for a release of Debian; the package version your runbook is attempting to download was for the "bullseye" release, and has been superceded by the 1.0.1+ds-1 version in that release. Thus, the package has been removed from that URL. There is a service which takes periodic snapshots of the Debian archive and mirrors them for posterity, at snapshot.debian.net. You may be able to use that to dig yourself out of the immediate hole that you're in, however it is not a solution to the larger problem. > It seems that today that package version has been removed.

Raspbian is not Debian; you should use the packages from the Raspbian repositories to ensure that package dependencies are maintained. If that distribution does not contain the packages you need, you should get involved in the development and maintenance of the distribution to ensure that it suits your needs, or switch to a distribution that does suit your needs. - Matt -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
