Timeline : t0 : I upgrade my system using the local mirror. Everything goes fine. about 2 weeks later : I run apt-get update. No new upgrades are waiting (!) (I'm running sid) I suspect there's a problem with debmirror. I rerun debmirror by hand (debmirror --progress --verbose --dist=sid --nosource --passive --host=ftp.fr.debian.org --method=rsync --root=:debian --section=main,contrib,non-free --arch=i386 --cleanup --getcontents /home/space/debmirror/debian). Nothing strange in the debmirror output except the find warning. To check if there is really nothing new, I switch in /etc/apt/sources.list from my local mirror to another mirror. I apt-get update, some new packages show up. I stop, look for a bug in the BTS, find it, apply the patch, rerun debmirror, switch back to my local mirror in /etc/apt/sources.list, run apt-get update, and it goes fine. -- | Lucas Nussbaum | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lucas-nussbaum.net/ | | jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG: 1024D/023B3F4F | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
