Hello, I have a (hopefully) simple question: does apt-get pay any attention to the ordering of URIs in the /etc/apt/sources.list file?
I use two servers for my updates; one is nearby but tends to lag by a couple of days, and one which is on the other side of the country but is generally more current. Often apt-get will be downloading packages from the far server when the same version is available on the near server, when I would obviously prefer that packages be retrieved from the near server if both have the same version. I would like to know if having the near server above the far server in the sources.list will guarentee this behaviour - I've got it that way at the moment but it does not seem to be consistent. Thanks, Andrew. -- Andrew Shugg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.omen.net.au/~aws/ "Just remember Basil, there's always someone worse off than yourself." "Oh, really? I'd like to meet him ...
