Download from mentors.debian.net?
Hi! Could someone please point me to documentation that explains how to download source packages from mentors.debian.net? I've tried adding: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian/ unstable main to sources.list, but 'apt-get update' returns: W: Failed to fetch bzip2:/var/lib/apt/lists/partial/mentors.debian.net_debian_dists_unstable_main_source_Sources Encountered a section with no Package: header E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. Strangly, I seem to not be able to find any such documentation. Am I overlooking something obvious? :-) Thanks!

Strangly, I seem to not be able to find any such documentation. Am I overlooking something obvious? :-) I believe there should be some info on Debian mentors, but like you, I cannot find anything at the moment - I guess it is something that has got moved in the mentors/expo transition. However, this describes how it is supposed to be done: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/504 For more info see man dget - (dget is found in the devscripts package). best regards /Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I've tried adding: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian/ unstable main Hi Torquil, I think you've found a real bug here. The Python code that manages the site does its own generation of the files you were downloading, so it is likely to blame for this issue. I consider this an unannounced API breakage caused by the transition, so it gets high priority. I hope to have a fix live within 1-2 days (though of course if someone beats me to it, I will not complain). Thanks for the high-quality report! -- Asheesh. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
