No idea wtf is going on with the CDN. For people who still have an issue cancel the update and do this:
wget https://packages.getsol.us/shannon/l/linux-firmware/linux-firmware-20250211-88-1-x86_64.eopkg
sudo mv linux-firmware-20250211-88-1-x86_64.eopkg /var/cache/eopkg/packages/
and then update again.
sudo eopkg up -y
Harvey this works
thanks!
Could be the reason

Having general problems since yesterday....
Routing on the Internet is very dynamic and such things quickly affect CDNs. That's why some people notice something and others don't
I had 82 Solus packages (695.54 MiB) to update today and, whether on Gnome Software or Solus Software Center, I was blocked on the linux-firmware package.
Your terminal commands allowed me to fix this issue and after reboot, my computer is now up to date.
Thanks again to you. 
I also noticed that with each retry the size of the package seemed to grow:
I also had to use the CLI in order to get the updates to download and install. Thanks for the commands to do that.
Deixei a noite toda e de manhã ainda estava congelada, desisti, e agora estou usando a solução apresentada pelo Harvey, ao qual eu agradeço.
Xf4ct can you please stay on english. Thanks
Wyrdsmyth Same here, any suggestions aside from wait a few days?
catfishsushi Harvey posted commands to work around this issue.
Just copy them into your terminal.
Yay! Thank you!! Everything is progressing excellently now
Sebastian Harvey posted commands to work around this issue.
Just copy them into your terminal.
Yes, that's working flawlessly
Might be a good idea to add the fix to the top post, just in case
Same happening for me at the moment on a fresh install. Will let it run for a bit and see if it finnishes.
PeacheyMcKeitch Will let it run for a bit and see if it finnishes.
Why?
Unnecessary waste of time.
Use the commands from @Harvey
wget https://packages.getsol.us/shannon/l/linux-firmware/linux-firmware-20250211-88-1-x86_64.eopkgsudo mv linux-firmware-20250211-88-1-x86_64.eopkg /var/cache/eopkg/packages/and then update again.
sudo eopkg up -y
I guess we need to run the update with linux-firmware excluded, as the first step, right?
eopkg up -x linux-firmware, and then install it separately as in the above instructions?
