First of all, the problem with the ~ key has been solved. I thought your fix made gc_approx recognize %7e as ~ in the cached packages' names. Instead, it now saves the packages with the decoded name. After renaming my old packages from %7e to ~ gc_approx does not try to remove them anymore. >> One of the files it tries to remove is: >> /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/m/mplayer-blue/mplayer-skin-blue_1.5-0.5_all.deb >> >> The Packages.bz2 file in my approx cache says: >> >> Filename: >> pool/main/m/mplayer-blue/mplayer-skin-blue_1.5-0.5_all.deb >> >> apt-cache policy mplayer-skin-blue says: >> >> mplayer-skin-blue: >> Installed: 1.5-0.5 >> Candidate: 1.5-0.5 >> Version table: >> *** 1.5-0.5 0 >> 1001 http://sirius etch/main Packages >> 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status > > Strange -- I have the same file in my cache, and it's not being > flagged for removal. This turned out to be a checksum problem. gc_approx -k -v says: ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/a/anyevent/anyevent-perl_1.02-0.2_all.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/d/divx4linux/libdivxdecore0_5.0.1-1_i386.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/d/divx4linux/libdivxencore0_5.0.1-1_i386.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/m/mplayer-blue/mplayer-skin-blue_1.5-0.5_all.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/libf/libfame/libfame-0.9_0.9.1-0.2_i386.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/libd/libdvdcss/libdvdcss2_1.2.9-0.0_i386.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/a/acroread/acroread_7.0.8-0.0_i386.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/g/gtk2-ex-formfactory/gtk2-ex-formfactory-perl_0.65-0.0_all.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/e/event-execflow/libevent-execflow-perl_0.62-0.1_all.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/x/xvidcore/libxvidcore4_1.1.0-final-0.1_i386.deb ! /var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20060611-0.0_i386.deb Adding the -f option makes gc_approx keep the package. I found out that the md5sum and sha1sum of the package match that in the Packages.bz2 file, but the sha256sum is actually different. Running the checksum programs on my machine results in: ae435c503465b91c7eadc19b234370b6 9081951967a54c91315a5ba29337597bb6b2f8af a16e38d82dc830769b89e1f7e213f65e0214fd064bf42350f184205ab0afbc85 The Packages file however says: MD5sum: ae435c503465b91c7eadc19b234370b6 SHA1: 9081951967a54c91315a5ba29337597bb6b2f8af SHA256: 2b32376a31b621266012b90910927eca18a701b76150e700289f7856b8d8bd3b Looks like a problem with the Packages file to me. regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 ICQ #17079270 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps-sarge.html
