If I recall correctly, sometimes firewalls allow ordinary downloads but not apt-get operations.  Try installing the cvs-proxy package and see if you can do an update from cvs. Information about 1746 packages read in 2 seconds. The following package will be installed or updated:  cvs-proxy /sw/bin/apt-get -q --ignore-breakage --download-only install cvs-proxy=1.11.5-1 Reading Package Lists... Building Dependency Tree... The following NEW packages will be installed:   cvs-proxy 0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0  not upgraded. Need to get 1029kB of archives. After unpacking 3080kB will be used.

Shows me an empty file.  Haven't used a command line editor since the early 90s though. You could potentially fall back on manual downloads of the binary archives--but lets see if cvs-proxy works. >  Update got gcc 3.1  then choked on the next version >  I have installed XCode from the panther install set. Panther?  That had better be XCode for Tiger, or things will break. Installed Xcode tools from panther disk.  Where is xcode for tiger?  How do I see if I have xcode?  Why was it vms instead of unix back when? >  Please advise > > >  Bob Henry >  Evergreen Elementary >  350 Bennett >  Wrangell, AK  99929 >  907-874-2321 x240 >  907-874-2621  fax > > -- Alexander K.
