Package: debootstrap Version: not this one. different system. latest testing version. Severity: normal
PLEASE IGNORE THE VERSION NUMBERS OF PACKAGES. THE VERSION BEING USED IS ON A DIFFERENT SYSTEM FROM THE SYSTEM BEING USED TO REPORT THE BUG. on a debian/testing system the following command is failing: debootstrap --arch i386 lenny /chrootlennyi386 http://archive.debian.org/debian the reason why it is failing is because at the following location there is no file Packages: http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/binary-i386/ the script therefore gets to only the 6th line "Validating Packages" and terminates "Couldn't download dists/lenny/binary-i386/Packages" .... quite rightly... because the file doesn't exist. this would therefore seem to defeat the object of having lenny (and earlier) debootstrap scripts entirely. perhaps there is somewhere an official debian archive which contains the Packages file? perhaps these have been overlooked? -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.13-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages debootstrap depends on: ii wget 1.14-5 Versions of packages debootstrap recommends: ii debian-archive-keyring 2012.4 ii gnupg 1.4.9-3+lenny1 debootstrap suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
