I have done this on several occasions. I tried the "apt-get update" again this morning at your request. The tomcat4 package still fails with the same error. "libtomcat4-java","tomcat4-admin", "tomcat4-webapps" also fail with the error "E: couldn't find package <package>". Installing any other packages does not cause this error. Is there a way for me to provide more information on this? The following is a list of servers "apt-get update" lists Hit http://ftp.us.debian.org testing/main Packages Hit http://ftp.us.debian.org testing/main Release Hit http://ftp.us.debian.org testing/main Sources Hit http://ftp.us.debian.org testing/main Release Hit http://debian.oregonstate.edu testing/main Packages Hit http://security.debian.org testing/updates/main Packages Hit http://security.debian.org testing/updates/main Release Hit http://debian.oregonstate.edu testing/main Release Hit http://debian.oregonstate.edu testing/main Sources Hit http://debian.oregonstate.edu testing/main Release Reading Package Lists... Done
I have tried other servers with the same results.
