Package: apticron Version: 1.1.36 Severity: normal
I noted a few days ago I stopped receiving apticron e-mails. I debugged the script and found out that this line: /usr/bin/apt-get --ignore-hold -qq -d --allow-unauthenticated --force-yes dist-upgrade >& /dev/null is failing, and thus, the script stops there any never send the e-mail. Running the command by hand (removing the >& /dev/null) I get this: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated! libselinux1 libgdbm3 gdb util-linux-locales Authentication warning overridden. Failed to fetch http://ftp.ccc.uba.ar/pub/linux/debian/debian/pool/main/u/util-linux/util-linux-locales_2.16.1-4_all.deb Size mismatch E: Some files failed to download What about changing the &> /dev/null to simply > /dev/null so at least I get this error reported by cron: Failed to fetch http://ftp.ccc.uba.ar/pub/linux/debian/debian/pool/main/u/util-linux/util-linux-locales_2.16.1-4_all.deb Size mismatch E: Some files failed to download So I can be warned there is a problem with my sources and fix it.
