Installing ROS 2 via Debian Packages from https:/docs.ros.org/en/foxy/Installation/Ubuntu-Install-Debians.html [..] I'm using pop_os 21.10

ROS 2 Foxy is not supported on Ubuntu Impish Indri (21.10), which is what Pop_OS is based on.

That's why apt returns you that error.

You can only install Foxy using apt on Ubuntu Focal (20.04) and derivatives of that. It's quite clearly stated which platforms are supported on the page you link:

only Ubuntu Focal supported

Another source for this information would be REP 2000: ROS 2 Releases and Target Platforms, specifically, the ROS 2 Foxy Fitzroy section:

only focal gets binary packages for foxy
