Hi, This is more for the mirror mantainers... but also for the impatient users:
In my opinion (hope I am wrong) the buzz-fixed/ tree under ftp.debian.org:/debian/ and the other directories pointing to it through symlinks (including stable/) do NOT reflect the changes made under buzz-updates/ and therefore is NOT fixed besides its name. Or is it maybe that Debian-1.1.1 should not contain the updates to the June 16th 1.1 release in contradiction with the logging message? Something doesn't fit. For example, here is what you would get if you point your browser to ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/buzz-fixed/disks-i386 >Current directory is /debian/buzz-fixed/disks-i386 > >Up to higher level directory > .message Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Symbolic link > 1996_6_16/ Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Directory > README Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Symbolic link > current Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Symbolic link > install.html Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Symbolic link > make-floppies Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Symbolic link > special-kernels/ Tue Jul 23 11:10:00 1996 Directory while pointing to buzz-updates/... you will get the newer "updated" files: >Current directory is /debian/buzz-updates/disks-i386 > >Up to higher level directory > 1996_7_14/ Tue Jul 23 11:10:00 1996 Directory > special-kernels/ Tue Jul 23 11:09:00 1996 Directory I am sure there may be other tests one could do to confirm that this is the problem. This is the simplest one I found (it took me more to find the problem than to write this letter ;-) What confused me was that ".message" under debian states that stable/ points to the latest Debian-1.1.x, while in fact stable/ points to buzz-fixed/ (which turned out not to be fixed :). Hope this helps. Enjoy Debian GNU/Linux! :-) Lazaro P.S. It would be nice to have quickstart guide at hand to help Debian newcomers to understand/use dselect. Any idea? -- Lazaro D.
