Howdy, folks! I realized today that there's a need for PPPoE (PPP over
Ethernet) packages for Debian 2.1 (slink) i386, as I couldn't find any
online.
I built up-to-date pppoe (and ppp, which it needs a newer version
of) packages in a slink chroot, and I've uploaded them to:
http://people.debian.o
libapt-pkg-doc_0.3.7slink0_i386.deb
The 0.3.7 packages for potato (the upcoming Debian 2.2, based on GNU
libc 2.1) have been installed into the main Debian archives and should
be available on the mirrors worldwide soon, and are available now
at:
http://www.debian.org/Packages/unstable/admin/apt.html
Happy AP
The Debian APT team would like to announce the release of the
latest version of APT, the next-generation packaging tool for
Debian GNU/Linux, version 0.3.7!
This release fixes many bugs, and now APT supports downloading of the
source to any Debian package! By running the command 'apt-get source
pa
is now patched from within configure.in
* http.us.debian.org is the default Debian mirror in /etc/apt/sources.list
* fixes for APT for the Alpha, now Alpha Debian Linux can run APT!
We hope everyone's Debian systems are made just a little bit better
with APT.
