what's the lag on various debian mirror sites?
% apt-get update
% apt-get upgrade
% apt-setup /pick a different mirror/
i'd just switched from ftp-mirror.internap.com to ftp.digex.net
if that matters...?
% apt-get update
% apt-get upgrade
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be upgraded
bind-doc elvis-tiny ncurses-term task-dns-server tcpdump
xfree86-common xlib6g
7 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not
upgraded.
Need to get 2718kB of archives. After unpacking 0B will be
used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
so am i downloading old packages from a stale mirror? or did
this mirror just now get some updates? or maybe different
mirrors have different package subsets? hmm?
