Re: What's Wrong with this Mirror?
Earlier problems with official debian multimedia packages were that they didn't produce any sound when the unofficial packages worked as expected.

Just thinking out loud here: If it's something that you don't mind sharing publicly, what package or packages does that repository have that someone might know of an alternative somewhere else? It's been a long time since I've used anything outside of Debian and non-free web browsers, but I do still remember that once in a while rare, really cool packages are only available on third party repositories.

Re: What's Wrong with this Mirror?
oh yes, that reminds me, you probably already know that apt-key is deprecated, perhaps the mirror is still using that On Mon, Oct 24, 2022 at 1:59 PM Jude DaShiell wrote: > Did you download and install the multimedia gpg key, if not that's > probably the cause of this error. > > > > Jude "There are four boxes to be used in > defense of liberty: > soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Did you download and install the multimedia gpg key, if not that's probably the cause of this error. Jude "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Well, thank you Jordan: I am actually either hoping some1 will fix that mirror or suggest a Debian Multimedia mirror which is current-and-working. Thanks again. Chime
Re: What's Wrong with this Mirror?
I would suggest just using deb.debian.org as its recommended by the installer, as long as you have no other external repos installed you can take the sources.list file from your installation media, assuming your desktop file manager supports mounting squashfs filesystems, then all you need to do after mounting is go into the mounted drive and go to /etc/apt and copy the default sources.list file, provided your installation media was for sid On Mon, Oct 24, 2022 at 1:43 PM Chime Hart wrote: > Hi All: As I run daily updates, I am noticing an error connecting to this > mirror. > http://mirror.optus.net/deb-multimedia/dists/unstable/InRelease > Even just trying it in LYNX just hangs.

Hi All: As I run daily updates, I am noticing an error connecting to this mirror. http://mirror.optus.net/deb-multimedia/dists/unstable/InRelease Even just trying it in LYNX just hangs. Can some1 please suggest an adequate replacement for my sources list? This is Debian SID. Thanks so much in advance. Chime
