Package: approx Version: 2.06 Severity: important Hello.
I just installed a backport of approx 2.06 in sarge (compiled against backports of all build-dependencies from sid, except libpcre-ocaml-dev), and to my surprise approx wants to delete all the existing source packages in my existing cache. To reproduce, let's start with an empty cache and download a source package (this on sid, btw): % sudo aptitude install approx % sudo vi /etc/approx/approx.conf # uncomment 'debian' % wget -qO/dev/null http://localhost:9999/debian/dists/sid/main/source/Sources.bz2 % find /var/cache/approx -type f /var/cache/approx/debian/dists/sid/main/source/Sources.bz2 % wget -qO/dev/null http://localhost:9999/debian/pool/main/s/sl/sl_3.03{.orig.tar.gz,-14.dsc,-14.diff.gz} % find /var/cache/approx -type f -ls 17935 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 approx root 552 Jul 17 2004 /var/cache/approx/debian/pool/main/s/sl/sl_3.03-14.dsc 17936 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 approx root 3776 Jun 10 1999 /var/cache/approx/debian/pool/main/s/sl/sl_3.03.orig.tar.gz 17943 12 -rw-r--r-- 1 approx root 12068 Jul 17 2004 /var/cache/approx/debian/pool/main/s/sl/sl_3.03-14.diff.gz 16893 1173 -rw-r--r-- 1 approx root 1197136 Jun 20 22:04 /var/cache/approx/debian/dists/sid/main/source/Sources.bz2 % gc_approx -k /var/cache/approx/debian/pool/main/s/sl/sl_3.03.orig.tar.gz /var/cache/approx/debian/pool/main/s/sl/sl_3.03-14.diff.gz /var/cache/approx/debian/pool/main/s/sl/sl_3.03-14.dsc Cheers, -- Adeodato Simó dato at net.com.org.es Debian Developer adeodato at debian.org Listening to: Franz Ferdinand - Do You Want To
