All you need is 8200petabytes of disk storage, is that so much to ask?

The error seems to be from

https://github.com/Debian/apt/blob/2d87af57ea52cb37c60103abb6468e0ad44864ff/methods/http.cc#L1017

There is likely some issue while calculating/getting TotalFileSize from request or downloading file. Passing debug options to apt should reveal more details, like running apt update -o Debug::Acquire::https=true.

Do all mirrors have same issue, after changing them with termux-change-repo (@renjieliu has different repo in sources.list)? You both have amazon fire device, so likely some device issue.

I am just a newbie and I also have an Amazon Fire HD 8 2018 (Karnak), with LineageOS 16, Android 9. Please try the old version of termux from the Google play store, I have no idea why, but it works. Type in termux-change-repo and select both the Game repository and Science repository. For the mirror, please select A1batross. You should be able to get 50 packages that's upgradable. RUN apt upgrade, make sure you keep the default during the upgrade. Make sure you do not run termux-change-repo the second time. I would very much appreciate if the developer can fix the issue for the latest version of termux. I also want to try out the Aidlux project which is based on Termux and unfortunately it doesn't work on my Fire 8. Thanks.
