You can't put version numbers in blacklist, they won't work. Only the package name:
Code:

kernel-generic
kernel-huge
kernel-modules
kernel-source

Had been long looking for just this bit of information. Made my life much simpler. Thank you!

Which mirror are you using, and is it up to date?

I'll just point out that you seem to have dots where there should be dashes, eg:

You have: kernel-generic.5.15.19

It should be: kernel-generic-5.15.19

Thanks for pointing it out.

The mirror, if I recall it right was the Tier 1 in Finland, and I noticed that it had been synced 19 minutes earlier.
