Now that does make complete sense. I just pulled /etc/apt/sources.list up (hadn't messed with that for a few years while driving truck for a living; sorry). Hmm. Now it looks like I cannot find a place with contrib. Oregon state is complaining, and the example from the web bombs too. Here's what I've got:
#deb file:///cdrom/ sarge main #deb http://debian.oregonstate.edu/debian/ stable main #deb-src http://debian.oregonstate.edu/debian/ stable main deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main non-free contrib deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main leadbelly:/etc/apt# apt-cache show ant W: Couldn't stat source package list http://http.us.debian.org stable/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/http.us.debian.org_debian_dists_stable_main_binary-i386_ Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) W: Couldn't stat source package list http://http.us.debian.org stable/non-free Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/http.us.debian.org_debian_dists_stable_non-free_binary-i 386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) W: Couldn't stat source package list http://http.us.debian.org stable/contrib Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/http.us.debian.org_debian_dists_stable_contrib_binary-i3 86_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) W: Couldn't stat source package list http://non-us.debian.org stable/non-US/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_stable_non-US_main _binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) W: Couldn't stat source package list http://non-us.debian.org stable/non-US/contrib Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_stable_non-US_cont rib_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) W: Couldn't stat source package list http://non-us.debian.org stable/non-US/non-free Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_stable_non-US_non- free_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory) W: Unable to locate package ant E: No packages found leadbelly:/etc/apt# If I go back to the old one, it works, but Oregon complains if I put in contrib.. Sorry if this is a dumb question. xc -----Original Message----- From: Wolfgang Baer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 05, 2005 8:10 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: debian-java@lists.debian.org Subject: Re: I'm trying to install ant, and it's complaining about tools.jar not being in /usr/lib/sablevm/lib/ Xeno Campanoli wrote: > I get nothing with apt-cache show ant[:]?. Perhaps you're using SID. For > apt-cache search I get ant-phone, anteater, antennavis, anthy*, antiword, > and antlr. No ant. Seems you are missing contrib (there it is) in your sources.list entry.
