Hi,

I realize that this is a Mint problem but this forum offers good advice 
that I can't find elsewhere.

I am trying to update Mint Linux 21.3 Virginia using Update manager.  It 
partially worked and updated some packages but it failed to install some 
security updates because it could not fetch 3 files. The error messages 
clearly indicate that at least 3 files could not be found.  The error 
messages are...

*************************************************************************

How can I solve this problem.  I checked the internet and found these 
files but am also not sure that the files I found are legitimate.  One 
can not be too careful when updating security stuff.  Maybe this 
indicates that my system has been compromised?

Thanks for any help in advance.
