Also, could you please send me the output of apt-cache showpkg emacs-snapshot-common and apt-cache policy emacs-snapshot-common on both machines? OK. I attached the apt-cache output. This output says that you have emacs-snapshot-common installed on both computers, at the same version. Maybe explaining what you're trying to do and the error message you're getting would make it clearer what the problem is. Also, based on my best guess about what you're saying (that you expect to have the same set of versions available), could you send me the sources.list from both computers?

Maybe explaining what you're trying to do and the error message you're getting would make it clearer what the problem is. I apologize my bad English... I will explain to you what I exactly thought and did as precisely as I can. First, I use emacs-snapshot-* packages every day. When I upgraded the packages, I thought I found a bug in emacs-snapshot-* package, and I wanted to downgrade the emacs-snapshot-* packages in order to check that the bug I found really related to the new version of emacs-snapshot-* packages. Then I decided to use snapshot.debian.net service. I added the following entry to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/snapshot-emacs.list and wanted to downgrade emacs-snapshot-* packages with aptitude: deb http://snapshot.debian.net/archive pool emacs-snapshot deb-src http://snapshot.debian.net/archive pool emacs-snapshot Finally I found that aptitude could list older version of architecture dependent packages (e.g. emacs-snapshot-gtk) but not independent packages (e.g. emacs-snapshot-common) on amd64 machines, whereas this worked completely well on i686 machines. So I thought that my sources.list entry was OK (because I could find some older packages) and this may relates to apt/aptitude bug. -- Ryo IGARASHI [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

On my i686 machine, aptitude worked fine, so that I thought that this is aptitude/apt issue. aptitude can only retrieve changelogs from packages.debian.org, so packages from random other archives won't benefit from the auto-changelog fetching. To fix this you would need the archive to have extracted changelogs, and you'd need metadata in the Packages or Release file saying where changelogs live. Sorry about that -- I have no idea where I got changelogs from. Evidently aliens stole my brain while I wasn't looking. Daniel signature.asc Description: Digital signature
