Package: debarchiver Version: 0.6.1 Severity: important I have (for the first time) set up a small Apt package repository:
http://www.bitshapers.com/debian/ At this time the repo contains only binary-all packages. They have been correctly sorted into the main/binary-all directory, but they are not being indexed by the debarchiver cron job in main/binary-<arch>/Packages and Contents-<arch>. The overall repository works ok (including signed Release file, etc.), but this problem makes debarchiver useless for me. I am getting the following error messages from every cron job invocation: dists/unstable/main/binary-i386/: 0 files 0B 0s dists/unstable/main/binary-all/:E: Sub-process gzip returned an error code (100) E: Errors apply to file '/proj/bitshapers/debarchive/dists/unstable/main/binary-all/web/thingy_1.100_all.deb' E: Sub-process gzip returned an error code (100) E: Errors apply to file '/proj/bitshapers/debarchive/dists/unstable/main/binary-all/perl/libwookee-perl_1.101_all.deb' New 20B 2 files 136kB 0s dists/unstable/main/source/: thingy has no source override entry thingy has no binary override entry either libwookee-perl has no source override entry libwookee-perl has no binary override entry either 2 pkgs in 0s Done Packages, Starting contents. dists/unstable/Contents-i386: 0 files 0B 0s dists/unstable/Contents-all: New 20B 0 files 0B 0s Done. 136kB in 2 archives. Took 0s I have attached the cron job I am using. (BTW, I have no idea what the "--scanall" option is supposed to do. The lack of documentation is embarrassing. I simply added the option in the hope that it would cause the binary-all packages to get indexed, but it seems to have no visible effect whatsoever.) For any other files, see the above repo URL.
