Please reopen this bug if you agree. Thanks for testing the new version - I have reopened the bug for you. :) As you can read in the new title i isolate the cause a bit further for this bug: If you add to your sources.list deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian stable main in your transcript above apt will happily download the correct version. (note that in the initial message these lines are included, so it works in your old setup.) This happens because the Codename/Releasename information is not available in the Source-Cache, so the Package-Cache is used to retrieve the version which belongs to the given codename. If you know the exact version you can download the source without a deb-entry, try e.g.: apt-get source nano=2.0.7-4 Best regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen, David "DonKult" Kalnischkies -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
