I installed approx 2.7.0 from unstable today. gc_approx is still not working properly. Instead of just trying to remove packages with ~ in the version, it now tries to remove other files as well. One of the files it tries to remove is:
/var/cache/approx/multimedia/pool/main/m/mplayer-blue/mplayer-skin-blue_1.5-0.5_all.deb
The Packages.bz2 file in my approx cache says:
Filename: pool/main/m/mplayer-blue/mplayer-skin-blue_1.5-0.5_all.deb
apt-cache policy mplayer-skin-blue says:
mplayer-skin-blue:
Installed: 1.5-0.5
Candidate: 1.5-0.5
Version table:
*** 1.5-0.5 0
1001 http://sirius etch/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Additionally, gc_approx also tries to remove some Packages files,
although they are still available on the server:
/var/cache/approx/security/dists/etch/updates/non-free/binary-i386/Packages.bz2
/var/cache/approx/security/dists/etch/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2
/var/cache/approx/security/dists/etch/updates/contrib/binary-i386/Packages.bz2
Currently no packages from this source are in the cache, is this the
reason? approx should still keep the Packages files.
Please reopen this bug.
regards
Andreas Janssen
