Package: nvidia-cg-toolkit Version: 2.0.0012.deb6 Severity: normal Hello, I'm on a slow connection and I cannot let the package postinst script download the nvidia toolkit from web:
Setting up nvidia-cg-toolkit (2.0.0012.deb6) ... Downloading http://developer.download.nvidia.com/cg/Cg_2.0/2.0.0012/Cg-2.0_Jan2008_x86_64.tar.gz on the amd64 architecture. 0KB [..dpkg: error processing nvidia-cg-toolkit (--configure): subprocess post-installation script killed by signal (Interrupt) I got to kill it, and manually launch: # nvidia-cg-toolkit-installer --install \ --toolkit-file /pendrive/debian/Cg-2.0_Jan2008_x86_64.tar.gz \ --spec-file /pendrive/debian/Cg-2.0_Jan2008_LanguageSpecification.pdf but the package remains unconfigured: # grep -A 1 "Package: nvidia-cg-toolkit" /var/lib/dpkg/status Package: nvidia-cg-toolkit Status: install ok half-configured So it would be nice if the postint prompts for a debconf choice to either download or install from a local downloaded copy. Thanks, Sandro PS: it would be even nicer if the package won't get reconfigured (thus redownloading the file) at each new debian revision (.debX) but only when upstream version bumps. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages nvidia-cg-toolkit depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.22 Debian configuration management sy ii libcompress-zlib-perl 2.010-1 Perl module for creation and manip ii libwww-perl 5.812-1 WWW client/server library for Perl ii perl 5.10.0-10 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction nvidia-cg-toolkit recommends no packages. -- debconf information: nvidia-cg-toolkit/http_proxy: (password omitted) nvidia-cg-toolkit/httpget: true nvidia-cg-toolkit/local: nvidia-cg-toolkit/delete: false nvidia-cg-toolkit/not_exist: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
