Hm, the log looks ok (except for the http timeout of course), what exactly is the problem? Did something went wrong with the upgrade? Is your packages file or pkgcache.bin corrupted? > > You can get the old apt behaviour back (no pdiff support) with: > > # apt-get update -o Acquire::PDiffs=False > > > Thank you!

[..] The pdiff patch will only download "diffs" (ed-style) for the Packages index files. This means that for a daily update you have to get ~50kb instead of the usually 3-4Mb. > #366678: wajig show no longer shows any packages [..] I have no idea why wajig does not work with apt 0.6.44. I would be interessted to know how it interfaces with apt to help fixing this problem. I will be glad to help you making it "harmonize with a madman". I'm usually around on irc in #ubuntu-devel if you want to discuss it with fast turn-around. Cheers, Michael -- Linux is not The Answer. Yes is the answer.
