Package: aptitude Version: 0.4.1-1.1 Severity: minor Every time I manually edit sources.list and run aptitude update, I get errors like this:
W: Couldn't stat source package list http://mirrors.kernel.org unstable/non-free Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.kernel.org_debian_dists_unstable_non-free_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) W: Couldn't stat source package list http://mirrors.kernel.org unstable/non-free Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.kernel.org_debian_dists_unstable_non-free_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) W: You may want to update the package lists to correct these missing files W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems For one thing, it suggests apt-get update directly. For another, the lists aren't missing; the files exist, and as far as I can tell aptitude can see them, and running aptitude update a second time doesn't produce the error. It's done this for as long as I can remember; I assumed it was an apt problem, but it isn't. If I use only apt-get update it does not manifest. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-rc1 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages aptitude depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6.3-6-3.1 0.6.44.2 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.3.6-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-5 GCC support library ii libncursesw5 5.5-2 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsigc++-2.0-0c2a 2.0.16-3 type-safe Signal Framework for C++ ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-5 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 Versions of packages aptitude recommends: ii aptitude-doc-en [aptitude-doc 0.4.1-1.1 English manual for aptitude, a ter -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
