mass bug filing: debcheckout fails

Hi, I noticed you started to file bugs for non-working debcheckouts. Was this discussed anywhere as suggested by the developer's reference[1]? The ones I saw just asked to drop "+ssh" from Vcs-* fields which I imagine a new lintian check could also achieve. Regards, Ansgar [1]

Re: APT Signature verification public key

Jumped too early on it. It was a corrupted apt keyring leftover of my upgrade from Ubuntu to Debian. Fixing it solved everything. Thanks, Ritesh On Tuesday 24 April 2012 03:49 PM, Ritesh Raj Sarraf wrote: > Hi, > > I'm trying to fix a bug in apt-offline. > > I try running the following comman

APT Signature verification public key

Hi, I'm trying to fix a bug in apt-offline. I try running the following command but gpg complains me about the public key's unavailability. Is there a separate keyring for apt package database trust that I need to use? rrs@champaran:/tmp/apt-offline-downloads-31824$ sudo gpgv --ignore-time-confl

devotee (debian vote engine): predictable RNG allows recovery of secret monikers
