Research direction
The report concerns the default main(xia) source at packages.linuxmint.com, but it does not mention a repository file, test, or proposed code change. First verify whether the source is reachable from a fresh Linux Mint 22.1 installation and compare the default source configuration; done means default updates and installations work reliably.

The default mirror, main(xia), which is http://packages.linuxmint.com/, has been inaccessible for two days.
This significantly slows down installation time.
