They all appear to work within normal parameters.
I just tested the package upgrades on my Hurd system at work. Using apt-0.3.19.0, it was able to fetch the packages and install them. apt pretty much has always crapped out partway through an upgrade (This time was no different), so I had to run it twice, but no other heroics were required for the perl upgrade. I have also now used the 'http' method for fetching stuff off of my debian mirror with *and* without using our proxy server at work. Thinking of work, I should go do some... =) -- I am a Unitarian *Universalist* - RUAUU2? =)
