Re: solved with minor glitch: Re: aptitude refuses to install gcc and a few other things

Well, I'm no expert, but I guess sometimes the mirrors moves stuff around or they just "die off", and hence /etc/apt/sources.list gets outdated. It usually happens on some of our older systems which have not been "apt-get update"-ed in quite a while. Someone else can probably give you a more accu

Re: aptitude refuses to install gcc and a few other things

hwo to find the cd Number for a given package

freeswan installation errors

On Sarge, I just used 'apt-get install freeswan' (shortly after upgrading all existing packages), and the apt-get is hanging at this step: "Unpacking freeswan (from .../freeswan_2.04-11_i386.deb) ..." (has been doing nothing for about 30 minutes).   Here is the apt-get output.  Note the errors i
