Ok, I've never used "-j" though which is probably why I have never run into this problem. Sounds like an obscure option to me after reading the manpage. > Julien is right in that there is a bug here that's worth fixing but the > default build environment which is incredibly hard to discover does not > expose them. What exactly is this particular bug then? Does the rules file of choose-mirror anything special in this regard? Adrian -- .''`.

There's a bug in choose-mirror. It's just not serious.

You are building in an unclean build environment unless you are building with something like sbuild and pbuilder, so your build results can have unexpected results. Please create a local sbuild setup and try again.

Try -J instead. :( Kind regards Philipp Kern
