Package: approx
Version: 5.1-1
Severity: normal
I'm using approx for my local network were I have several computers using it.
Today, doing an update on aptitude from one of the machine I found no package
to be upgraded an most of the ones installed appearing on the "Obsolete and
Locally Created Packages" section that was pretty strange.
Checking the computer that runs approx I see that I'm using localhost instead
of the name of the host itself that points to the IP for the local network on
the sources.list and here an update on aptitude works as expected (I have some
packages for upgrade and few on the obsolete section). So, changing the host to
the same name that I'm using on the rest of the machines I can reproduce the
problem.
Where could be the problem?.
Thanks.
Ernesto
