That looks like you're installing from a CD/DVD. I might be wrong but I
don't think you need to do update if you're using a CD; apt-cdrom will
take care of fetching the index from the disc.

So, if your only source of packages is the CD, then ignore the warning
and install away. If you are using a mixture of CD and internet, then
you probably want to remove the CD from your /etc/apt/sources.list as it
will soon get outdated by the internet mirrors.

That was exactly what it was-the CD line /etc/apt/sources.list was not
commented out from the install from the DVD.

Thanks, Darac,

Of course!

What is the output of:

grep -v '^$\|^#\|^\s*\#' /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/*}


Is this the first time you are running apt-get update on this machine.

Personally, I'd run as root

# rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/* 

then try running apt-get update again, and see if that fixes it.

It won't do any harm.

apt-get update problem

2008-10-24 Thread Account for Debian group mail



Hello,

We have 2 (of out many) machines that will not do a apt-get update 
properly (since the 4.0 upgrade a couple days ago). These 2 machine are 
old but have working just fine. The message I get on both of these 
machines are:


Get:5 http://security.debian.org etch/updates/main Sources [56.5kB] 99% [5 
Sources gzip 0]
[Waiting for headers] gzip: stdin: not in gzip format

Err http://security.debian.org etch/updates/main Sources  Sub-process gzip 
returned an error code (1)

Failed to fetch 
http://security.debian.org/dists/etch/updates/main/source/Sources.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)



I change the IP address for security.debian.org to see if that would make 
a change - no change.


I did a lynx on this file: lynx 
http://security.debian.org/dists/etch/updates/main/source/Sources.gz;
and it worked just fine and was able to un-archive it as well.

The gzip program is the same version as on the other machines that work.

Not sure which direction to go now, anyone have an idea?

Thanks,

Ken

Try apt-get clean then apt-get update

Still no good? then delete contents of:
/var/lib/apt/lists/partial

Then try apt-get update again.

TIP
===
To further analyse problems like this or indeed any problem where a well
defined error message is produced; PASTE the exact error message into
google and you will *ususally* find lots of posts about it.

I posted [Waiting for headers] gzip: stdin: not in gzip format into
google and got *at least* those answers I've given above.

Try the simplest solutions first, moving up to the more *drastic* ones
if it seems necessary.

Anyway it would be good, if you could post back if none of these work.
If another solution, which you could get off google, works, please post
that back here. No doubt others will experience the same thing.

P.S. Changed subject to more accurately depict your problem.

 Warum das jetzt passiert weis ich aber auch nicht. Vielleicht kann ja
 noch jemand schreiben warum das passiert. Solange bin ich auch noch
 nicht bei Debian. 

Wurde schon mehrfach hier diskutiert in den letzten Wochen/Monaten.
apt-get geht ganz einfach der Speicher aus, so dass man ihm mehr
zuweisen muss - siehe auch die erste Antwort. Bei mir ist das noch nicht
aufgetreten, aber ich habe auch nur so ca. 6 Netzaddressen für Pakete
und sonst nur CD-ROMS die ja ein wenig anders gehandelt werden.

apt-get update Problem : Dynamic MMap ran out of room

Hallo alle...

Ein (noch) kleines Problem, das wahrscheinlich auf die Dauer störend
wirken könnte...

apt-get mag nimmer, und ich weiß nicht, was sich dagegen machen ließe.
So sieht das aus (das ganze als root, auch wenn's in meinem home
Verzeichnis war) :

Wonach wurde bei meinen identischen Versionen entschieden, welche Version

das original von Debian. Woher weiß apt, welches Paket das Original ist?

apt-get versucht Pakete mit identischer Bezeichung immer in der
Reihenfolge zu beziehen, wie die Quellen in /etc/apt/sources.list 
aufgelistet sind. Lokale Quellen sollten also immer oben stehen.

Kill this file, then try again. It should be recreated.

Happened to me to this morning. It seems that the Ximian people
introduced a version number in brackets after the line:

  Provides: ximian-gnumeric

in the file you mention under Gnumeric section.
I removed the number and it worked afterwards. Also reported this on the

Hi Erik,

thank you very much, your suggestion worked perfectly.
By the way, I've noted that in the last upgrades of ximian-gnome, several 
problems arises. I wonder if the ximian people is careful enough, as least 
with respect to the debian distribution...

apt-get update problem (another one)

2000-11-22 Thread Stefan Bellon
Hi everybody!

I've been quite happily running Debian GNU/Linux woody since a while.
But yesterday I installed large amount of new debs (I didn't update for
time reasons since july or so) and now apt-get behaves strange and I
don't know why. It has worked with the same /etc/apt/apt.conf and the
same /etc/apt/sources.list in the past. Has the sources.list syntax
changed or why does apt-get make up so strange things like
'non-us.debian.org/ftp' or 'spidermonkey.helixcode.com/http' and wants
to resolve them?

Here's what happens. I hope every information is included. If not,
please ask back:

sudden apt-get update problem

2000-10-09 Thread William Jensen
every few days i run apt-get update and apt-get upgrade to keep my 'potato'
system up to date.  today I see the following:

So I ran it again with the same results.  I have not changed anything in my
system.  My sources.list looks like:

deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free

I've even went into /var/state/lists and wacked all of the 'old' ones in there
and then rebuilt using apt-get update again.

What's the scoop?

you might be hitting a mirror that is unhappy, or one that is updating.

I had the very same exact thing happen to me today also, with the same
output as you have shown...

I'll try it in the morning, and see if it works then...

apt-get update problem

2000-09-25 Thread Bernd Worsch
Me again!

Apropos update/upgrade capabilities. Recently my modem-ppp connection
broke, while apt-get update was in progress. Since then there seems
to be a problem with apt-get update, it says:

What is the problem? 
How to correct it?
Was it triggered by the braking connection?


Thanks
Bernd
