Hello, I have been using apt-proxy for some time for installing and updating Debian software, including building ISO images using jigdo. Aptitude now reports repeated errors. The first request from aptitude is for the file Release.gpg and I can see a recently updated file /var/cache/apt-proxy/debian/dists/etch/Release.gpg but now all attempts to get it from apt-proxy are answered by a failure to connect, even when aptitude is running on the same box as apt-proxy. I suspect that apt-proxy is only searching through /var/cache/apt-proxy/debian/dists/etch/main/ /var/cache/apt-proxy/debian/dists/etch/contrib/ /var/cache/apt-proxy/debian/dists/etch/non-free/ and not /var/cache/apt-proxy/debian/dists/etch/ aptitude will then report failure to connect for other requests or just ignore any other output from apt-proxy and collect from a normal Debian mirror site instead. I did have apt-proxy as the only source listed in /etc/apt/sources.list and had a few messages about an untusted site but then decided to add some standard mirror sites just to get regular updates. I was running apt-proxy then apt-proxy-v2 on a sarge box, so tried upgrading that box to etch, and also apt-proxy on a totally new box running etch, but get the same results, now also from boxes still running aptitude on sarge. Any ideas? It would be good to get this working before etch is officially released. -- Chris Bell |
