I have set up one of my macs to serve binary packages for the rest, to save recompiling the same thing over again.
I've been using apt-get {upgrade/dist-update} and that works with the appropriate lines added to /sw/etc/apt/source.list However, I turned on the "UseBinaryDist" flag in fink.conf, and that doesn't work: Downloading the indexes of available packages in the binary distribution. /sw/bin/apt-get-lockwait -q update Err http://quince.leeds.ac.uk stable/main Packages Cannot initiate the connection to 3128:80 (0.0.12.56). - connect (65 No route to host) Err http://quince.leeds.ac.uk stable/main Release Cannot initiate the connection to 3128:80 (0.0.12.56). - connect (65 No route to host) Err http://quince.leeds.ac.uk stable/crypto Packages Cannot initiate the connection to 3128:80 (0.0.12.56). - connect (65 No route to host) I have "ProxyHTTP" set using port 3128, and clearly something isn't parsing this correctly. Everything else works as it should, so I don't think it is the proxy setting, which in full is: ProxyHTTP: http://www-cache.leeds.ac.uk:3128 Running sudo /sw/bin/apt-get-lockwait -q update by hand does work as expected. I think this only broke recently, but I'm not sure when. Obviously I can live without it and keep using apt-get directly, but I thought I'd report it in case it is easy to fix. -- Viv ________________________________________________ Dr Viv Kendon http://quantum.leeds.ac.uk/~viv tel: +44 113 343 4864 Physics and Astronomy Quantum Information Group University of Leeds ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
