*** Please type your report below this line ***
We have a local copy of the Debian archives.
Our /etc/apt/sources.list contains:
deb ssh://root@myhost/mirrors/mirror/ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main
contrib
This works well with apt-get, but not with apt-file:
# apt-file update
usage: scp [-1246BCpqrv] [-c cipher] [-F ssh_config] [-i identity_file]
[-l limit] [-o ssh_option] [-P port] [-S program]
[[user@]host1:]file1 ... [[user@]host2:]file2
Can't get
ssh://root@myhost/mirrors/mirror/ftp.de.debian.org/debian/dists/squeeze/Contents-i386.gz
strace reveals that apt-file calls
scp -l root -P 22
"myhost://mirrors/mirror/ftp.de.debian.org/debian/dists/squeeze/Contents-i386.gz"
\
"/var/cache/apt/apt-file/myhost_mirrors_mirror_ftp.de.debian.org_debian_dists_squeeze_Contents-i386.gz_tmp"
which is wrong since "-l" does not mean login_name in scp (unlike
ssh). scp does, however, support "root@myhost:...", which also works
with ssh.
