I've attached a tcpdump log, 10.0.0.5 is the server 10.0.0.17 the debian etch client. The first answer from the server (200 OK to Release.gpg) looks garbled (my ethereal's dissector could not parse it). This lead me to restart apache on the server and I haven't seen the problem since. If it occurs again I'll try with the Debug options to apt-get. For now I think you can close this report, doesn't seem to be a problem in apt-get afaict. Sorry for the report, looks like wget could parse the broken header-line ok and I hadn't seen that behaviour of apache ever before.

Sorry, I'm afraid not; I was only triaging the bug severity so that it wasn't marked as a release-critical bug when the vast majority of users are using apt-get ok, I'm not actually an apt maintainer and don't know the internals enough to suggest how to debug this. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

Downgrading this report, since it's certainly not true that apt is generally unusable... OK. For me it's a showstopper -- although I maybe should try with ftp on the server. Note that this hit me also during install of another box (soekris embedded hardware with serial console), after apt configuration the magic in the installer marked all apt sources as unavailable, so I was unable to complete the installation normally because neither lilo nor grub would be installed... -- Ralf Schlatterbeck email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] FAX: +43/2243/26465/23 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
