It's supposed to (in fact the strange size of -1 is approx's internal indication of a chunked transfer, where the size is not known in advance). The fix was trivial, but it's evidently been broken for quite awhile since you're the first person to report this. I guess Debian repositories that use chunked transfers are quite rare. I'll upload a new version shortly, but it won't be in wheezy due to the freeze. -- Eric Cooper e c c @ c m u . e d u -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
