Hi all, I installed Debian a few days ago and had no trouble downloading extra packages using apt-get. Then I re-installed today, and hardly anything will work (Transmission did install). Any idea what is wrong?
My updated sources.list file: deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 5.0.5 _Lenny_ - Official i386 CD Binary-1 20100626-17:37]/ lenny main deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main deb-src http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile main deb-src http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile lenny/volatile main deb http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/ main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/ main contrib non-free I ran apt-get update (as root), then tried installing many things, eg: debian:/home/brett# apt-get install mozilla-plugin-vlc Reading package lists...
