I don't need a workaround. I am fully aware of how the system works and could workaround the issue if I wanted to. I am posting this for the broader community and highlight that the (default) mirrorbrain system is fundamentally broken. It should NOT be redirecting to known broken (404) webpages for multiple weeks.(I assume that what you are talking about is when you try to do an "apt update" or "apt upgrade" and it figures out what the nearest mirror is, but that mirror is down, so it just errors out instead of trying another mirror. Is that right?)
I have already provided the solution but it is up to https://archive.raspbian.org/ (Raspberry Pi LTD) maintainers to implement it.
I do not require any further community member contact.
