Ah, sorry. I realised I forgot some information when I suggested you make this change.
Although we're not using these images at the moment, we hope to use them again some time in future. For that reason it's useful to keep the information about what the images were and how they worked in place.
So, rather than removing this completely, it would be better to keep the {DEBIAN,...}_IMGS variables and the download targets, but just don't include them in DOWNLOAD_ASSETS for now. That will make it easier to put a fixed version of this back when we're ready.
My suggestion from a couple of days ago: https://archives.passt.top/passt-dev/20250820134427.6a16ad19@elisabeth/ was rather that we update the links. Not many of them are broken, and it would be valuable to have test/distro working again. Is that unfeasible for some other reason? -- Stefano
