Help kiwix-zim-updater no longer working.

I have been using this exact setup for over a year now without any issues.

For some reason, now all the sudden, it claims it can't find remote files?

Many URLs have recently changed, it is (hopefully) only a matter of updating one URL or two. Any idea where this tool source code lives? (which repo, where?)

u/Benoit74 The tool was originally started by DocDryden, and is now maintained by u/j0j02357 . I've been involved in a minor way from the outset (mostly testing and/or reviewing PRs for updates). It's very useful for bulk updates, checking new versions, downloading only torrent files if you prefer, etc.
