Package: approx Version: 4.5-1 Severity: normal Hello,
thank you for maintaining approx. I have the approx cache in a separate partition, which is an ext3 filesystem with a lost+found directory. When running approx-gc, it looks like the lost+found directory is stopping its execution: # approx-gc [...] debian/pool/main/n/ncurses/libncursesw5_5.7+20100313-2_amd64.deb debian/pool/main/n/ncurses/libncurses5_5.7+20100313-2_amd64.deb debian/pool/main/c/cairo/libcairo2_1.8.10-5_amd64.deb /var/cache/approx/lost+found: Permission denied security/dists/squeeze/updates/main/i18n/ security/dists/squeeze/updates/non-free/i18n/ security/dists/squeeze/updates/contrib/i18n/ debian/dists/squeeze/main/i18n/ debian/dists/squeeze/main/binary-amd64/Packages.diff/ debian/dists/squeeze/main/source/Sources.diff/ debian/dists/squeeze/non-free/i18n/ debian/dists/squeeze/non-free/binary-amd64/Packages.diff/ debian/dists/squeeze/non-free/source/Sources.diff/ debian/dists/squeeze/contrib/i18n/ debian/dists/squeeze/contrib/binary-amd64/Packages.diff/ debian/dists/squeeze/contrib/source/Sources.diff/ /var/cache/approx/lost+found: Permission denied # I suppose Permission denied is causing approx-gc to abort the operation instead of just skipping that file.
