I have an machine which I keep at unstable, and update daily. This is mainly so that I can keep an eye out for problems. When I came to run apt-get today it started quite happily, but I remembered that there was a change I had intended to apply to /etc/apt/sources.list, so I interrupted apt-get, edited sources.list, and restarted it. It just hung. So I logged off and back on in case there was something left lying around, but that did not clear it, so then I tried re-booting the machine and that did not clear it.
Now no apt-get operation, except apt-get -v or -h, work. They do not put out any error messages, they just sit there. Anyone got any ideas as to how to resurect it? David -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
