Package: apt-move Version: 4.2.27-2+b1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, I have for a long period of time (many years, i have been using linux since kernel 0.96d, 20 years ago) been using apt-move to maintain my own repository as I have poor internet access. As usual I transferred all the debs from the CD images downloaded at the cafe in town and placed them into /var/cache/apt/archive directory. The commands "apt-move get" then "apt-move move" commands were run. Apt-move ran as normal for the usual time and printed it had moved the files. On examination of the repository no files had appeared there and all had been erased from the archive diectory. I tried this a number of times with the same result. All the deb packages (I keep backups) were transfered to a Debian 6.0X box which was temporarily set to testing and the new repository was created successfully using apt-move version 4.2.27-1+b8. For what its worth I have been using debian since it first came out (pre 1.0), while for a long time the installer was questionable the package quality __FAR__ exceeds other distributions, particularly in flexiblity in getting the system to do what I want instead of what some else thinks I need. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-686-pae (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages apt-move depends on: ii bc 1.06.95-2 ii dash 0.5.7-3 ii libapt-pkg4.12 0.9.7.5 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libgcc1 1:4.7.1-7 ii libstdc++6 4.7.1-7 Versions of packages apt-move recommends: ii apt 0.9.7.5 apt-move suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/apt-move.conf changed: APTSITES="/all/" LOCALDIR=/mirrors/debian DIST=testing PKGTYPE=binary FILECACHE=/var/cache/apt/archives LISTSTATE=/var/lib/apt/lists DELETE=no MAXDELETE=20 COPYONLY=no PKGCOMP=gzip CONTENTS=no GPGKEY= -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
