replace the 404 message on gluck?

2003-12-16 Thread Harald Dunkel
Hi folks,

Wouldn't it be a nice idea to replace the 404 message on
gluck to give some nice explanation about why the
netinst images are not there? This would be a matter
of just 5 minutes, but it would avoid a lot of postings
here.
Regards

Harri

I added the following note yesterday:

NOTE: Homepages on people.debian.org were disabled after the http://www.debian.org/News/2003/20031121";>break-in, some links
will not work until the homepage owners set up their pages
again.

Unfortunately, this hasn't yet made it onto the site - at a guess the cron
job which did the automatic update hasn't yet been reinstalled?

Cheers,

  Richard

Absolute template URLs in official .jigdo files

2003-12-16 Thread Richard Atterer
Hello,

every now and then, there are complaints from people who mirror the 
official .jigdo/.template files: The .jigdo files contain absolute 
.template URLs, so the templates are always fetched from us.cdimage, which 
creates a single point of failure and defeats the purpose of mirroring the 
.jigdo/.template files.

Could this be changed to use relative URLs for future releases?

One reason for the absolute URLs was that the version of jigdo-lite in
woody didn't allow them. This is no longer true as of 3.0r2 - jigdo-file
0.6.5-2 supports them.

I think the other reason is that Phil doesn't want people to download the 
templates from non-us.cdimage, just from us.cdimage. Phil, maybe you could 
solve this issue on your side by using HTTP redirects?

Cheers,

  Richard

Yeah, no problem.

Ah, I knew there was a reason --- fair enough.

Nah, I don't have a problem with that.  I think it was totally due to
the absolute URL thing.

I'll tweak my publish_cds script now.

Cheers, Phil.

Just checking --- presumably, what is now:

  
Template=http://us.cdimage.debian.org/jigdo-area/3.0_r2/jigdo/i386/woody-i386-1.template

should become:

  Template=/jigdo-area/3.0_r2/jigdo/i386/woody-i386-1.template

is that right?

Given that this could be changed without doing any damage to the
current MD5SUMS, should we consider just changing the existing jigdo
files?

Cheers, Phil.

Er - good question! I'm not so sure how such a URL would be handled by 
jigdo-lite. Better use just

Template=woody-i386-1.template

2003-12-16 Thread Jayendran JR
Hello,

  I noticed that the current ISOs for Debian are nearly a year old
  (Dec 2002) though there are patches available. Could you please
  clarify if any new version is about to be released so that I can
  download the newer ISOs instead of downloading the older ones
  and applying patches.

  If, by mistake, I have sent this a person no way concerned to
  what I wanted to know, I request you to redirect me to someone
  who could answer the same. In that case, sorry for the trouble
  and in any case thanks for your time.

Thanking you,
