Sorry if you found my message a bit rude, I appreciate the work you are doing and I even encouraged you to try it out because clearly nobody was assuming the task. But honestly there have been way too many uploads with regressions, you should spend more time thinking about the consequences of each change and you should really add some automated test to catch the regressions. I understand the "release early, release often" mantra, but here we are speaking of an important tool that we really to keep working at any time.

This was mostly a mis-interpreting of mine. The string mentioned above _IS_ indeed added to the ../po/sublevelX/ structure for translators, but it is in sublevel2, not in 3, even though in partman-auto-lvm it is said to be in sl3. That's because partman-partitioning has the identical string, and there it is said to be in sl2. After this discovery, I ran l10n-sync again with commit rights, and now it looks fine.

Bug#907292: Can't find package list on server
Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.108 Running debootstrap fails because it tries to fetch the package list shown in /var/lib/apt/lists named binary-i386_Packages. But there is no such file on the server. Instead there are files: binary-i386_Packages.gz and binary-i386_Packages.xz but it doesn't look for them. I've run strace on it. Here's the command I gave and results: debootstrap --variant=minbase --verbose stretch /minboot http://debian.usu.edu/debian I: Retrieving InRelease I: Checking Release signature I: Valid Release signature (key id 067E3C456BAE240ACEE88F6FEF0F382A1A7B6500) I: Retrieving Packages E: Couldn't download http://debian.usu.edu/debian/dists/stretch/main/binary-i386/Packages debootstrap needs to find one of the compressed files. download it, and unconpress it.

Running this same command works just fine here.
If 'unxz' from xz-utils is found, then the .xz version is used; bunzip2 will
similarly be tried (but isn't on the mirror) and then gunzip is searched for
and the .gz file is used.
From debootstrap.log:

That is what is supposed to happen (and does for me). Is it possible that you
somehow do not have unxz and gunzip available in PATH?
I see that you've created this bug report without using reportbug and from
what looks like a non-Debian system -- is the version against which you have
reported this bug incorrect? Is there additional information you can provide?
Cheers
Stuart
