Thanks Jay - I am on a Basic plan, but also the issue isn't the installation process, the repo package data is out of date/incorrect. The Packages file for noble (24.04) is correct but the Packages file for oracular (24.10) is not (or at least does not match the actual deb file, as the apt error message indicates).
