Package: apt-transport-s3 Version: 1.1.0-2 Severity: important Tags: patch When a package has a filename that includes a + character in it the attempt to fetch it from S3 fails.
This is a known issue with S3 and has been fixed in the apt source. A patch for this issue has been submitted upstream and can be examined at https://github.com/BashtonLtd/apt-transport-s3/pull/6 I believe this bug is very important because it effectively makes this package unusable with many widely used packages (for me, specifically, the package produced by java-package from the Oracle JDK 1.6 distribution). It is not clear to me if upstream and the package maintainers are the same organization, so I am also submitting this report to the BTS. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages apt-transport-s3 depends on: ii apt 1.0.9.5 ii python 2.7.8-2 ii python-configobj 5.0.6-1 apt-transport-s3 recommends no packages. apt-transport-s3 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
