I'm running on Ubuntu 20.04.

$ sudo apt upgrade

It shows the following error:

Err:2 https://cli.github.com/packages stable/main amd64 gh amd64 2.14.7
  404  Not Found [IP: 185.199.108.153 443]
E: Failed to fetch https://cli.github.com/packages/pool/main/g/gh/gh_2.14.7_amd64.deb  404  Not Found [IP: 185.199.108.153 443]
E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

But I can ping 185.199.108.153 well. When I run $sudo apt update, it shows the following error:

Err:4 https://cli.github.com/packages stable InRelease
  The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 23F3D4EA75716059
W: An error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error: https://cli.github.com/packages stable InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 23F3D4EA75716059

W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

When I run the following:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 23F3D4EA75716059

It shows the following:

Executing: /tmp/apt-key-gpghome.m9dSx1oUbg/gpg.1.sh --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 23F3D4EA75716059

gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:              unchanged: 1

Then I run $sudo apt-get update, the same result comes out.

What should I do to work around it?

Pinging a server will not tell you whether a file exists or not, which is why you can ping without error. The `.deb` file that is specified in the package list does not exist on GitHub (as far as I can tell), which is why you cannot download it

How to solve it? Or just let it be?

If the file is being specified by a repository's release file, then chances are other people have the very same issue and someone will fix the problem in the near future. If this continues to be a problem for too long, it may be worthwhile to remove the erroneous repository for a while so that other updates can happen without messages.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
