Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apt-utils
Running on Edgy. apt-ftparchive -v gives "apt 0.6.45ubuntu14 for linux
i386 compiled on Sep 27 2006 23:43:42"
I'm running the following command: "apt-ftparchive generate apt-
ftparchive.conf". The "Packages" file that's generated by this contains
incorrect file sizes for the .debs it finds. This results in a "size
mismatch" error whenever I try to install anything from my repository.
The dpkg-scanpackages (1.13.22) command gives the correct file sizes.
My apt-ftparchive.conf file is as follows:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dir {
ArchiveDir ".";
CacheDir ".";
};
Default {
Packages::Compress ". gzip bzip2";
Sources::Compress "gzip bzip2";
Contents::Compress "gzip bzip2";
};
BinDirectory "dists/current/main/binary-i386" {
Packages "dists/current/main/binary-i386/Packages";
Contents "dists/current/Contents-i386";
SrcPackages "dists/current/main/source/Sources";
};
Tree "dists/current" {
Sections "main";
Architectures "i386";
};
Default {
Packages {
Extensions ".deb";
};
};
