Sorry - My fault - It seems there are broken debs .... ([EMAIL PROTECTED])/tmp# ar x bash_2.02.1-1.8_mips.deb ar: bash_2.02.1-1.8_mips.deb: Malformed archive Following files are broken and have been removed: bash_2.02.1-1.8_mips.deb libreadlineg2_2.1-13.6_mips.deb libreadlineg2-dbg_2.1-13.6_mips.deb libreadlineg2-dev_2.1-13.6_mips.deb Now dpkg-scanpackages works again ... There are currently no packages in contrib/binary-mips and non-free/binary-mips so probably you get an error there too.
