Am 11. Jul, 2001 schwäzte Kurt Lieber so:
I'm fairly new to Debian, so I apologize if this is really obvious.
That said, I'm trying to install SSH2, which is available here:
ftp://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US/dists/testing/non-US/non-free/binary-i
386/ssh2_2.0.13-5.1.deb
So, I have the following line in my sources.list file: (among others)
deb ftp://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US testing/non-US non-free
That looks good.
If I do apt-get update all the package lists update fine and I get no
error messages.
When I try to do apt-get install ssh2, I get the following error message:
Reading Package Lists...
Building Dependency Tree...
Package ssh2 has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
What the heck am I doing wrong? (and, as a side note, I know I can download
the .deb package manually and install it that way -- but I really want to
know why apt-get isn't working for me.)
:)
Try:
apt-cache search ssh
See if that pulls up ssh2.
Also, OpenSSH, packaged as ssh, has support for the ssh2 protocol. I know
that installs :). See the bug reports for ssh, http://bugs.debian.org/ssh,
though ( specifically bug 95576 ) if you have IPv6 on your box. Last I
checked you have to uncomment the entries for ssh protocol 2 and sftp in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config. Easy enough, though :).
ciao,
