Package: di-netboot-assistant Version: 0.36 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch It would be nice if the "Download failed" message included the failed URL without having to use "--verbose".
Although the URL can be obtained with "--verbose", the verbose option is somewhat too noisy to be used with cron and means you have to re-run the command to obtain the failed URL before you can begin poking your mirror; you cannot rely on the normal output alone. A patch is attached which adjusts the output of "di-netboot-assistant install lenny" from: I: Processing lenny/amd64 ... I: Downloading... E: Download has Failed. I: You have a previous version in your cache (see --offline option). I: No checksum fount. I: Moving/Removing temporary files. to: % sudo di-netboot-assistant install lenny I: Processing lenny/amd64 ... I: Downloading... E: Can't download 'lenny' for 'amd64' (http://yomi/debian/dists/lenny/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz). I: You have a previous version in your cache (see --offline option). I: No checksum fount. I: Moving/Removing temporary files. Regards, -- Chris Lamb, UK [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG: 0x634F9A20
