Thanks for your reply. All the six packages in the repository will be given an incorrect Size attribute in the "Packages" file. Here's the list (correct value first, as calculated using dpkg-scanpackages and verified using ls -l)
agentfactory 134176 134680 agentfactory-afapl2 253730 254302 agentfactory-fipa 9996 9964 agentfactory-mts-http 15192 15144 agentfactory-mts-local 3700 3698 agentfactory-mts-udp 5978 5974 The packages themselves are at http://www.agentfactory.com/debian/dists/current/main/binary-i386/ The dpkg-scanpackage command I'm using that creates the correct Packages file is: "dpkg-scanpackages dists/current/main/binary-i386 /dev/null > dists/current/main/binary-i386/Packages" The MD5sum is different in the two Packages files also, yes. ** Attachment added: "Correct Packages file (calculated by dpkg-scanpackages)" http://librarian.launchpad.net/6777085/Packages_correct.txt -- apt-ftparchive includes incorrect file sizes in Packages file https://launchpad.net/bugs/82505 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
