NOTE: This is only a simulation!
apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!

There seems to be a problem with the repository server that you use.
If you look at https:/
I recommend that you try switching to another repository server in your vicinity (e.g. ETH), or the country server for your country, or the central server.
