Can I do something still?
I think that FAILED message is saying that there was a filename in the md5sums.gz that didn't exist; checking its md5sum failed because it didn't exist. To check this, did any of those FAILED lines refer to files that you actually have? You used a for loop to move the passed debs. That suggests that the directory now only contains debs that failed. How many such files are there? I don't know if the rsync mirrors have individual packages or just CDs. If you can find an rsync mirror that has your broken packages, you can use rsync to fix them. Otherwise, just delete them and move on. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
