Wrong number of packages?

2001-02-18 Thread Santiago Garcia Mantinan

Hi!

Today I was doing a set of sid i386 cds and I found this:

The debian cd scripts said:

Statistics :
Number of packages : 6387
Number of excluded : 0 of 6387

After finishing copying the files to the cds and without any cp error or any
other error I run on the directory I use for building the images:

manty@pule:/otro/tmp/sid-i386$ find . -type f -name '*.deb'|wc -l
   5255

And then I run on the debian mirror:

manty@pule:/ceu/debian/dists/sid$ find . -name binary-i386 -exec grep
'^Package: ' {}/Packages \;|wc -l
   6267

So, wich if the numbers is correct?

Can anybody explain whi only 5255 packages go into the cds if there are over
6000?

Thanks in advance!

I have a similar problem with the HURD CDs.  I put it down to dependency
checking.  So I butchered the cd scripts to disable this feature and all
the files were then included, plus a mass of *-all.deb's from pool.

Please, pseudo-image help needed!

2001-02-18 Thread Nugzar Nebieridze

Hello all.

I'm new to this list so please excuse me if I'm asking silly question or a question 
that you've alreade ansvered. I checked the maillist archive at www.debian.org and did 
not find answer for my question.

Currently I'm running FreeBSD 4.0 as my internet/mail server and I'd also like to try 
Debian on another computer to compare them. So, as cdimage.debian.org offered me I 
downloaded pseudo image kit and started making of the CD image.

./make-pseudo-image binary-i386-1.list ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian

actually, the problem is that I intended to create not the official CD image by my 
custom CD.
I also added to this pseudo image the updates from ftp://security.debian.org.

So, of course the MD5 sum will not match and I do not want to run rsync. The question 
is "Can I create my custom CD image from existing pseudo-image file?". I checked the 
make-pseudo-image script and as I see the only thind it makes is

cat $DownloadedFile >> pseudo-image

so this file is only a binary string. if it is impossible to make a custom image from 
this file than can I extract the downloaded files from pseudo-image?

I have CD-writer on my Win 2000 box with adaptec easy cd creator.
Please, answer me if you can. I already downloaded 550 megs of data and do not want to 
lose it.

Thank you,
