Package: apt Version: 0.5.4 Severity: important Recently, ftp.kernel.org moved their mirror of Debian to a new machine, mirrors.kernel.org. They did the right thing and respond with a status of 301 (permanently moved) when you request any url under http://ftp.kernel.org/debian (or http://www.kernel.org/debian).
The problem is that apt doesn't handle 301 status and complains that it can't find the necessary Package files. Obviously, I can edit sources.list to point to the new localtion but I'm rather suprised that apt is not performing the second request in response to the 301 status. -- System Information Debian Release: testing/unstable Kernel Version: Linux debian 2.4.9 #1 Tue Sep 11 09:43:51 PDT 2001 i686 unknown Versions of the packages apt depends on: ii libc6 2.2.4-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone ii libstdc++2.10- 2.95.4-0.01090 The GNU stdc++ library -- Stephen "So if she weighs the same as a duck, she's made of wood."...
