I think using apt-file and or command-not-found would be more reliable. No idea why the links you posted aren't working. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise

Thank you for these infos, I ignored them. :-)
I attached 2 scripts (one in Perl, one in Python) allowing to get the
names of the machines providing packages.debian.org service. I think
some checks about LDAP errors could be added but it's a start.
I guess the perl script could be included in order to fix the current
bug report.

possible bug in packages.debian.org
Hi folks, I dont know if this is the right place to post about this, but with my limited english I will try. Let me know if there is a more adequate place. I think there is a bug in: packages.debian.org I use it (sporadically, I am a slackware guy) for testig some software (for first impressions, when it is dificult to compile in a i686 machine). I already wrote about 4 scripts since 2008 to use that site.These question questions are since ever, but today I wrote this post. Recently I have tried (quicly) apt-get but is it much hard to set a RootDir in some point different from real root dir, for not disturbing my system. I am very confortable parsing web pages when the web site is OK. The essence of my all cited scripts is, I seed an element name and the script downloads and install all the dependences based on the capture error when trying to run th element (as an human being does). A practical and recent case as example, I started my fourth script on April 04 2016, experimenting with WireShark: RUN=wireshark-gtk STDOUT: wireshark-gtk: command not found wget go to (paths ending with the keyword): https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=sid&arch=any&searchon=contents&keywords=wireshark-gtk And Get: Sorry, your search gave no results You have searched for paths that end with wireshark-gtk in suite jessie, all sections, and all architectures. But if wget go (manually) to (Package names only): https://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/wireshark-gtk/filelist The Result is: /usr/bin/wireshark-gtk /usr/share/applications/wireshark-gtk.desktop /usr/share/doc/wireshark-gtk/README.Debian /usr/share/doc/wireshark-gtk/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/share/doc/wireshark-gtk/changelog.gz /usr/share/doc/wireshark-gtk/copyright Another problem is instability about results. The same query in different momments result in different results (usually result or no result). For me this is randomic and I cannot give examples at the momment. How i get credible results for package contents? Thanks a lot. PS: Is the a more logical way to do what I intend?

Debian repository
Hello, according this page: https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Apt/Sha1Removal I wrote about problem with Insync to developers and they fixed it. So I think, Insync can be changed. After this I tried apt-get update and it is without problems. OS: Debian testing Kernel: 4.4.0-1-amd64 Thank you very much. Best regards, Roman Duriska.
Who's using Debian?
Hi
Can you please add an entry to your page https://www.debian.org/users/
Name of organization:
Zomerlust Systems Design ("ZSD")
Cape Town
South Africa
Organization type:
Commercial
Home page link:
http:/www.zsd.co.za
A paragraph or two describing how your organization uses Debian:
ZSD has been using Debian since 1997. We are an Internet Service
Provider and we specialize in setting up and supporting on-site servers
for small to medium based clients. We provide remote and telephonic
support for these servers, our clients often have no Linux specific
skills. These servers provide firewalls (shorewall), dns (bind,
power-dns), dhcp (isc-dhcp), e-mail (exim, dovecot, roundcube),
anti-virus/anti-spam (clamav, spamassassin), vpn's (openvpn, racoon),
proxies (squid, dansgaurdian, sarg), webservices (apache, php, mysql),
backups (rdiff-backup), raid storage (linux raid1 software) and file
services (samba). We use Debian on our 14 in house servers and we have
nearly 200 Debian servers under maintenance contracts on client premises.
Debian servers are very stable and they facilitate easy software
upgrades, including major upgrades, over remote links. Linux raid
software allows for flexible hardware upgrades and easy recovery from
hardware failures without excessive downtime and no linux specific
skills on site.

Bug#820119: tidy reports valid NCR as invalid
Package: www.debian.org Severity: wishlist https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-controls#support HTML, XHTML and XML 1.0 do not support the C0 range, except for HT (Horizontal Tabulation) U+0009, LF (Line Feed) U+000A, and CR (Carriage Return) U+000D. The C1 range is supported, i.e. you can encode the controls directly or represent them as NCRs (Numeric Character References). * https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-controls#background The control codes in the range U+0080-U+009F are known as the "C1" range. unfortunately no option seems to eliminate this :( latest source use the same code (line 1165-) https://github.com/htacg/tidy-html5/blob/master/src/lexer.c -- victory no need to CC me :-)
