Does anybody know why nearly all the paths in recent postings on
'linux-security' 'redhat-announce-list' give paths that don't exist?
For example, the kerberos announcement has:
--------------------
Red Hat Linux 6.2:
intel:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/6.2/i386/krb5-configs-1.1.1-16.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/6.2/i386/krb5-devel-1.1.1-16.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/6.2/i386/krb5-libs-1.1.1-16.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/6.2/i386/krb5-server-1.1.1-16.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/6.2/i386/krb5-workstation-1.1.1-16.i386.rpm
--------------------
and the Netscape 4.73, SGML tools, and Samba 2.0.7 packages had similar
paths referring to nonexistent "5.2" and/or "6.2" directories at
ftp.redhat.com. I got errors when I cut out the FTP paths and tried
inserting into rpm, wget or ncftpget commands. Checking by logging
in with ftp, I found that the "6.2" and "5.2" directories didn't exist
at the path indicated.
Shouldn't these paths be something like:
"ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/updates/6.2/<arch>/<pkgfile>"?
Were there previously some links that are now missing?
