It's hard to know why this would be, as it could occur for many reasons: if the download completely failed, or if the download is just proceeding too slowly. The error messages from aptitude are very limited, so to find out the real reason you'll need to look in the log file (/var/log/debtorrent/debtorrent-client.log). Try and find some relevant lines near where the error happened (it might help to search for the name of the package you were trying to download). If you can send the relevant sections of the log file to me, I might be able to help more. Thanks, Cameron -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
