We have reason to believe that this bug is unrelated to proxy/authorization 401 errors, as some of the people affected are not behind a proxy.
What we are requesting is that smart verifies that what it has downloaded is sane, and an expected result; just as APT does. I have not tested this in oneiric (though the only difference in the related code appears to have been the trustdb additions in 1.4). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/855887 Title: smart does not gracefully handle invalid Releases/Packages files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/smart/+bug/855887/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
