Could this be happening again?

At the moment, no packages are available from the DigitalOcean mirror 
(http://mirrors.digitalocean.com/mariadb/). The NLUUG mirror times out 
(e.g. at https://ftp.nluug.nl/db/mariadb/repo/10.6/debian/pool/main/m/).

Other mirrors on https://downloads.mariadb.org/ do contain packages, 
including those for the MariaDB versions released today, but their 
modification date is 2022-08-11, while the release date for e.g. 10.6.9 
is 2022-08-15 (today).
