I guess you're not a DD, and so don't have access to the porter machines? Anyway, the backtrace looks like: Reading symbols from /usr/lib/apt/methods/http...(no debugging symbols found)...done. [New LWP 9241] Core was generated by `/usr/lib/apt/methods/http'. Program terminated with signal 10, Bus error. #0 0xf7e4e24c in ??

() Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?) Which doesn't look very helpful. Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
