I suspect this bug was related to this one: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?archive=no&bug=376777 (i.e. the Contents file were/are broken on the servers) I just installed apt-file here and apt-file update works fine on today's sid. If the bug submitter can confirm that it works for him too, then I suggest to close this bug. Otherwise a strace -f might be needed because we really want to know what the child process (wget) is doing if it doesn't do what he is expected to do. wget 1.10.2-2 apt-file 2.0.8 Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog Premier livre français sur Debian GNU/Linux : http://www.ouaza.com/livre/admin-debian/
