Hi! Since I was running out of disk space, I realized that under /var/cache/apt/archives there were all the packages I've been tinkering with since I last updated the system. I wanted to install a new package, which would in turn update some others. apt here works by ftp. However, apt refuses to fecth his files from the ftp server it's been assigned, and tries to get them from the cache. However, since i cleared that "manually" (I know, I know, there's a clean flag for apt-get, but...), files aren't there, and apt-get exits without doing the installation.
Does anyone have any clues on how to go on about this? Thanks in advance, Jose -- Jose L Gomez Dans PhD student Radar & Communications Group Department of Electronic Engineering University of Sheffield UK
