Hello, everyone.
Running 23.6 KDE and when I go to Discover to update packages, it gives the following message:
E:
http://mirrors.rit.edu/mxlinux/mx-packages/mx/repo bookworm/main i386 Contents (deb) is not (yet) available (File has unexpected size (884736 != 1279511). Mirror sync in progress? [IP: 129.21.171.72 80]

What's going on?

It tells you: File has unexpected size (884736 != 1279511). Mirror sync in progress?
That is likely what is going on.
Wait a while or change mirrors.

@MintHawk @BitterTruth Wait until your mirror has updated or change mirrors with MX Repo Manager.

Before you change repo mirrors check here:
https://rsync-mxlinux.org/mirmon/packages.html
Some of them don't update frequently.
