Dear Maintainer,
> *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
>* What led up to the situation?
Preparing to install Debian on a PC, haven't done that for a few years. (Hence
the downlevel of this box.)
>* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
I RTFMed, and found information about `jigdo`, which I had not previously used.
Specifically I looked @
https://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/#how
which currently has the following HTML:
- How to download an image with jigdo
-
- Download a package containing jigdo-lite, which is
- available for GNU/Linux, Windows and Solaris from the
- http://atterer.org/jigdo/";>jigdo homepage. For FreeBSD,
- install from /usr/ports/net-p2p/jigdo or grab the package with pkg_add
- -r jigdo.
-
There are 2 problems with this text:
1. The current package name=`jigdo-file` (per, e.g.,
https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=jigdo), not `jigdo-lite`. This
error is repeated several times in subsequent text on that webpage.
2. The current jigdo homepage=https://www.einval.com/~steve/software/jigdo/ per
the old homepage=http://atterer.org/jigdo/ cited above, which says (again, HTML)
> I have stopped development on this software long ago. But luckily,
> Steve McIntyre has taken over development - thanks Steve!
> Please head to href="https://www.einval.com/~steve/software/jigdo/";>einval.com for a forked
> jigdo version with new features.
Fortunately these errors are easy to fix (and I would do myself if the target
page=https://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/ was in the Debian wiki):
0. Acquire access to the HTML source for https://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/ in
some shell, and make it editable.
Following assumes shell=bash and path=/path/to/jigdo-cd.html to that file;
change below as needed.
1. Run commandline=`sed -i -e 's|jigdo-lite|jigdo-file|g'
/path/to/jigdo-cd.html`
2. Run commandline=`sed -i -e
's|http://atterer.org/jigdo/|https://www.einval.com/~steve/software/jigdo/|g'
/path/to/jigdo-cd.html`
3. Check your work with commandline=`grep -nH -e
'jigdo-lite\|http://atterer.org/jigdo/' /path/to/jigdo-cd.html | wc -l` ;
result should=0
4. Mount edited source as needed for the Debian web.
