Hi! I changed my script to check whether the Filename: field is with a './' in front or not. Works for now. Probably another tweaking will be necessary in the future, but currently it is ok. The ./ is a sideeffect of dpkg-scanpackages. You should not rely on that but just reimplement

Hi Goswin! Afaik it is as simple as: The Filename entries are relative to the URL you would put into the sources.list, as in: deb url path/ deb url dist section+ I see. But how does the mirror script know how the particular Packages files are referenced from a (most probably remote)

Hi! There are only 2 cases: Having 'dists/codename/suite/binary-arch/' in the path and not. You could have a Packages file with 'dists/codename/suite/binary-arch/' that is used as if it hadn't but that is rather unlikely. A good indication you are using a Packages file wrong is also

Hi! At least some of them are of woody-proposed-updates, which got dropped from the database, and hence from pool. Indeed, the corresponding Packages.gz files on the mirrors didn't get dropped yet, which is a minor bug. woody-proposed-updates got dropped because there is no more point
