Package: apt Version: 0.8.16 When attempting to install a package which is held in a repository at Sourceforge, it reports the error:
Err... Got a single header line over 360 chars Failed to fetch... Got a single header line over 360 chars This problem is due to a recent change at Sourceforge in which they use a cookie to handle the system that directs the download to a relevant mirror server. A string is added to the URL which makes it 450 characters long, which exceeds 360, the maximum length hard-coded into APT by the declaration: #define MAXLEN 360 Simply increasing MAXLEN to 500, or 1000 to be safe, would fix this problem. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
