It seems that the CDN never realized that the file size has changed, although I have reverted the normal index page for a long time. I requested the CDN admins to fix this issue.
About the debs: no, CDN should not assume that a deb never changes. The file names are always unique for newly uploaded packages. I can't tell you why new debs are not "picked up" by the CDN properly, if this was also part of your question. Thanks Marius for the questions. Please shoot more and I try to answer as much as I know. > Marius Gedminas > -- > Colorless green ideas sleep furiously. > Cheers, ferenc _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
