apt-get problem (on debian sid)
Since some days I don't get any upgradable packages when doing an apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade (0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded). First I thought it had something to do with an old Packages file being cached in the proxy server. I then did a grep on the Packages file for gaim (which I knew was at version 0.72) and it showed up correctly. I have this idea that my local package database might be broken (?) since it's impossible that there haven't been any package updates to sid last week. Anyone has any ideas on fixing this?

Oh it is possible that nothing has been processed since the widely reported Debian machine compromises happened. The Debian Archive Pool has not been compromised. Things will get cranking sometime soon... just wait. -- greg, [EMAIL PROTECTED] REMEMBER ED CURRY! http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
