Well, it's not really apt itself, just how the sites in question happen to be laid out. :) Compare http://security.debian.org/dists/ and http://security.debian.org/debian-security/dists/ in a browser and you'll see what I mean. (The /debian-security path is there for old browsers that don't support HTTP/1.1's name-based virtual hosts. Those browsers will just connect to the machine that hosts security.debian.org along with other things and won't tell it that they're looking for security.debian.org, so you need an extra way to remove the ambiguity. Fortunately not many of those browsers are around any more.) -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
