I think that the originally described problem is in fact caused by the bug described in #20. Unless we expect every archive mirror to support ranged requests (which IMHO is a bit much to ask), the 406 error needs to be handled properly. Even if a mirror supports ranges, the implementation in the client is still buggy because of the incorrect handling of ranges for compressed files.
Therefore, I will change the description of this bug if I do not hear any other opinion within the next two days. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/940825 Title: apt-get update reporting "not acceptable" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/940825/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
