Package: apt-cacher-ng Version: 0.8.0-3 Severity: important Dear maintainer:
I tried to get the source for vlc and this is what happened: ------------------------------------------------------------ $ apt-get source vlc Reading package lists... Done NOTICE: 'vlc' packaging is maintained in the 'Git' version control system at: https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-multimedia/vlc.git Please use: git clone https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-multimedia/vlc.git to retrieve the latest (possibly unreleased) updates to the package. Need to get 29.1 MB of source archives.

[ I have no idea what this *.asc file is, but if it's some new feature in the ftp archive, I suppose apt-cacher-ng will have to support it as well, by default ]. Thanks.
