Unfortunately I cannot test the proposed git diff, as I can't find a tree that I can apply it against. Could you please commit it and push as a branch somewhere, and/or provide: $ git format-patch origin/debian/sid patches? I'm using git://anonscm.debian.org/apt/apt.git and that repository does not have apt-pkg/contrib/proxy.cc in any of its heads. -- Regards, Dimitri. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
