    It works now, but I am not sure why. The following are steps:

     

    * The original not-working configuration are URL: https://linux.dropbox.com/debian, suite: sid.

    * I change URL to https://linux.dropbox.com/ubuntu, and suite to disco, and run `apt update` to test if the problem is in debian repository only. It works.

    * I change URL to https://linux.dropbox.com/debian, and suite to bookworm, and run `apt update` to test if the problem is in sid suite only. It works.

    * I rollback all configuration (URL: https://linux.dropbox.com/debian, suite: sid), and run `apt update`. It works.

     

    I guess maybe some broken configuration is fixed when running `apt update` with new configuration.
