Package: apt Version: 0.5.27 Severity: important Hello,
I have run into problems with apt-get when attempting to build the netboot image for sparc32 from the debian-installer-20041027 source. Below is a fragment of my build log (actual failure happens in get-packages script, where I have set +x for extra debugging output): + apt-get --assume-yes -o Dir::Etc::sourcelist=/home/d-i/debian-installer-200410 27/build/sources.list.udeb.local -o Dir::State=/home/d-i/debian-installer-200410 27/build/apt.udeb/state -o Debug::NoLocking=true -o Dir::Cache=/home/d-i/debian- installer-20041027/build/apt.udeb/cache -o Acquire::Retries=3 -o Apt::Architectu re=sparc update Hit http://ftp.egr.msu.edu sid/main/debian-installer Packages Ign http://ftp.egr.msu.edu sid/main/debian-installer Release Hit http://ftp.egr.msu.edu sid/main Packages Hit http://ftp.egr.msu.edu sid/main Release Reading Package Lists... + apt-get --assume-yes -o Dir::Etc::sourcelist=/home/d-i/debian-installer-200410 27/build/sources.list.udeb.local -o Dir::State=/home/d-i/debian-installer-200410 27/build/apt.udeb/state -o Debug::NoLocking=true -o Dir::Cache=/home/d-i/debian- installer-20041027/build/apt.udeb/cache -o Acquire::Retries=3 -o Apt::Architectu re=sparc autoclean Reading Package Lists...

The two identical pointer values also seem suspicious, but I cannot immediately tell whether it is a problem. The sources.list.udeb.local, mentioned in the command above, contains two lines: deb http://ftp.egr.msu.edu/debian sid main/debian-installer deb http://ftp.egr.msu.edu/debian sid main I would be happy to provide further information or relevant files upon request.
