Hi,

For your information, httpredir can return a non-complete repository. This
problem happened many times, with the selection of debian.grena.ge which does
not contain the amd64 packages.
Result of apt update

Err:15 http://debian.grena.ge/debian sid/main i386 Packages 404 Not Found
E: Failed to fetch http://debian.grena.ge/debian/dists/sid/main/binary-i386/
Packages 404 Not Found
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones
used instead.
