Re: Package link broken

Hi,

Below is my history looking for various packages to load. You can see that right after the first (bottom-most) hit I landed on the 'all' pages. The listing is in chronological order with the most recent hit on top.

So the initial redirection to the 'all' pages is from the 'all' link in the section 'Download python3-colorama' under the header 'Architecture'.

For me this 'all/allpackages' page was very helpful to find the packages I needed now that I am rebuilding a Raspberry Pi to the latest OS, and the pip-method to load packages no longer works.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your quick response.

Regards,

Bram Langen

Could you provide an instruction on how did you browse the internet and
enter the page https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/all/allpackages ?

The webpage https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/all/allpackages , though it displays
package information, shall not exist from the very beginning.

I have submitted a corresponding bug report at https://bugs.debian.org/1059780 .

(PS: To Debian Webmasters: how can I contribute to fixing bugs of packages.debian.org ?
I have been looking for information since year 2019, but I am still clueless in 2024 today.
The most recent attempt is https://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2023/12/msg00029.html .
Any help would be appreciated.)

Thanks,
