Why does my Google App Engine preinstall script fail due to Ubuntu (security.ubuntu.com) returning 404?

Goal: I am trying to make puppeteer run on GAE flex instance.

Intermediate Goal (and source of problem): installing dependencies during a GAE flex instance gcloud app deploy

Add. Info:
  • I had puppeteer previously running on a standard env, but now I need a flex instance bc websockets are not supported in standard.

What have I tried

I tried following this advice. This gentleman apparently made it work: by adding this in scripts in package.json:

"preinstall": "apt-get update && apt-get -y install gconf-service libasound2 libatk1.0-0 libc6 libcairo2 libcups2 libdbus-1-3 libexpat1 libfontconfig1 libgcc1 libgconf-2-4 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 libglib2.0-0 libgtk-3-0 libnspr4 libpango-1.0-0 libpangocairo-1.0-0 libstdc++6 libx11-6 libx11-xcb1 libxcb1 libxcomposite1 libxcursor1 libxdamage1 libxext6 libxfixes3 libxi6 libxrandr2 libxrender1 libxss1 libxtst6 ca-certificates fonts-liberation libappindicator1 libnss3 lsb-release xdg-utils wget",

Just for fun, I tried apt instead of apt-get. I also tried to pretty crudely copy paste the RUN script instead given here for a different use case:

apt-get update \
    && apt-get install -y wget gnupg \
    && wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add - \
    && sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list' \
    && apt-get update \
    && apt-get install -y google-chrome-stable fonts-ipafont-gothic fonts-wqy-zenhei fonts-thai-tlwg fonts-kacst fonts-freefont-ttf libxss1 \
      --no-install-recommends \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

But they all fail on some variation of 404 from security.ubuntu ? They all lead to something like this:

I frequently read that puppeteer on flex cannot be done, but I am failing WAY earlier. Does anybody know why my build is not running through? The server does indeed reply 404 for those urls given. What is going on?
