Hi all, I dunno if this is a bug in aptitude or in /etc/apt/sources.list or the mirror I'm downloading from or somewhere else but every time I run update I get the following :-
Downloading Index http://debian.ec.as6453.net/debian/dists/experimental/contrib/Contents-amd64.diff/Index: % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 7819 100 7819 0 0 17587 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 17690 Calculating old sha1sum... local file too old So it's coming from experimental contrib . This is my /etc/apt/sources.list :- $ cat /etc/apt/sources.list #### testing ######### deb http://debian.ec.as6453.net/debian/ testing main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free #### unstable ######### deb http://debian.ec.as6453.net/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free #### experimental ######### deb http://debian.ec.as6453.net/debian/ experimental main contrib non-free The mirror was the selection given to me by netselect-apt . This is the partial output from the InRelease file I saw :- /var/lib/apt/lists$ head -12 debian.ec.as6453.net_debian_dists_experimental_InRelease -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Origin: Debian Label: Debian Suite: experimental Codename: experimental Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2013 08:36:28 UTC Valid-Until: Wed, 07 Aug 2013 08:36:28 UTC NotAutomatic: yes Architectures: amd64 armel armhf hurd-i386 i386 ia64 kfreebsd-amd64 kfreebsd-i386 mips mipsel powerpc s390 s390x sparc Components: main contrib non-free The point I want to make is that the component experimental/contrib is valid (at least as it seems from the InRelease file). I have removed the lists couple of times and started afresh but everytime after the lists come I get the statement. So is this something to do with the InRelease file or a mirror issue or something at my end ? I haven't filed a bug because I'm not sure whether it's a bug or an issue at my end or something. -- Package-specific info: Terminal: xterm $DISPLAY is set. which aptitude: /usr/bin/aptitude aptitude version information: aptitude 0.6.8.2 compiled at Nov 7 2012 07:08:03 Compiler: g++ 4.7.2 Compiled against: apt version 4.12.0 NCurses version 5.9 libsigc++ version: 2.2.10 Ept support enabled.
