Hi all! I have a little problem with dpgk-ftp and my dselect... It core-dumps whenever dkpg-ftp tries to connect to the ftp server. I have not changed anything drastic since it last worked (I now run 2.1.65, but it did the same with 2.0.32)
I have upgraded to hamm, but I did it kinda manually... I used dselect to get the package files, and piped its output to get a list of stuff I needed to get, and FTP'ed it for free at my University (phone calls be quite expensive in .za), dumped them in the /var/lib/dpkg/methods/ftp/debian directories, whick fooled dselect into thinking I FTPed them, and all went peachy (I must say, I'm quite impressed how smooth upgrading from libc5 was) Anyhow, I really think the problem is how I typed in the directories in the dpkg-ftp setup. So the question is, what dirs should I type in to select the hamm dist, and what should I type at the distributions to get part? BTW, my dpkg-ftp version is : 1.4.9 and dselect: : Hmm, my goodness, seems its not a seperate package... Which packages is it included in? Anyway, it should be the one that is/was in hamm about a week and a half ago. Any help would be appreciated Thanks in advance Neilen ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Neilen Marais <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 27-Nov-97 Time: 01:08:39 This message was sent by XFMail ---------------------------------- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
