Public bug reported: Binary package hint: par2
The par2 packages have (apparently) been broken on ppc for some time now. The last working package was from hoary. I found this out today after trying to use par2 to verify some files and repeatedly getting this error message ("main packet not found"). I then found this URL: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-90148.html which indicated a course of action. After getting the hoary version of the par2 package, it works properly again. ** Affects: par2cmdline (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- par2 as packaged in breezy and dapper gives "Main packet not found." and fails. https://launchpad.net/bugs/56300 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
