no, didn't use the form on the PTS web interface, instead used the instructions there and tried to use the webmail interface. >> This is an email I got from [email protected] :- >> >>> Subject: Your mail >>> subscribe <aptitude> [[email protected]] {=} <default,cvs> >> <aptitude> is neither a source package nor a binary package. >> It may be a 'pseudo package' or a mistake... >> >> A confirmation mail has been sent to [[email protected]]. >> >>> -- >> Stopping processing here. > > The various types of bracket are used to indicate syntax, they aren't > included in the actual commands, i.e. "<sourcepackage>" becomes > "aptitude", "[<email>]" means that it is optional to include an email > address (you can leave it out if sending the mail from the address you > want subscribed). > > Try: > > subscribe aptitude [email protected] > keyword aptitude [email protected] = default cvs thanx, the above fixed it for me :) I got the confirmation email.
