Package: apt Version: 0.8.11.5 Severity: wishlist Gentlemen, the problems mentioned in http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.user/402702 http://aptosid.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=774 often: 1. knock out aptitude, and even apt-cache show, search. It doesn't know about any packages anymore. 1a. Can't work offline now as my lists are damaged. 2. it's like a DOS attack, can't hardly use any apt service because my lists are now messed up. 3. we end up just putting the US site into source.list.d and say forget about the mirrors.
Why can't mirror refreshing be done in the proper order so the end user doesn't see any partial states? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
