When doing # aptitude update on my bog standard testing setup, I'm getting the following error:
Get:8 http://http.us.debian.org testing/contrib Packages [49.0kB] 99% [8 Packages gzip 0] [7 Packages 0] gzip: stdin: not in gzip format Err http://http.us.debian.org testing/contrib Packages Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1) The full log is shown below [1]. Plus sources.list [2] I've googled and found nothing conclusive. Any ideas why this is failing? Is anyone else seeing the same thing -- Best, Marc [1] mote:~# aptitude update Reading package lists...
