Package: apt-file Version: 2.0.8.2 Severity: minor
Hello, apt-file(1) should mention that wget/curl are used as HTTP backends instead of apt itself. This is important because if a proxy server is required to reach the network, apt-file silently fails in that case. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16.11 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages apt-file depends on: ii curl 7.15.5-1 Get a file from an HTTP, HTTPS, FT ii gzip 1.3.5-15 The GNU compression utility ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.20 Perl interface to libapt-pkg ii libconfig-file-perl 1.4-2 Parses simple configuration files ii perl 5.8.8-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii wget 1.10.2-2 retrieves files from the web apt-file recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
