Package: apt-proxy
Version: 1.9.35
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Hi,
Not sure what priority is appropriate here, since it's semi-related to
verification of security updates.
I just installed apt-proxy on a pure "etch" machine, and tried running in
debug mode.
In the log files I noticed these two lines:
[FileVerifierProcess] starting verification: /usr/bin/bunzip2
('/usr/bin/bunzip2', '--test',
'/var/cache/apt-proxy/security/dists/etch/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2')
[verify] cache file verification FAILED for
/var/cache/apt-proxy/security/dists/etch/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2:
bunzip2 failed
This appears to be because the path to bunzip2 is wrong:
$ dpkg -L bzip2 |grep bunzip
/bin/bunzip2
/usr/share/man/man1/bunzip2.1.gz
However afaik this isn't hurting anything, because the log continues:
[CacheEntry] start download:dists/etch/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2
[DownloadQueue] queue file
security/dists/etch/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2
[Fetcher] Connected to http://security.debian.org/debian-security
...etc...
This may also be related to bug #303357.
I have a related question, please advise if I should file separately.
I wonder why apt is asking for things that don't exist in the archive; the URL
http://security.debian.org/debian-security/dists/etch/updates/non-free/binary-i386/Packages.diff/Index
returns a 404. Afaics this is because there are no *.diff/ directories in
the security tree. There are in the main archive for etch however.
Possibly this is related to #336433 ?
kind regards,
Vince
