New upload delays. It is available now: http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/a/aptitude/aptitude_0.4.11.3-1/changelog.html > Or where have I can obtain a changelog > in such situations? http://incoming.debian.org/ Even if the package itself has moved out of incoming and is beginning propagation to the mirrors, there is usually a build from a port waiting in incoming - in the case of aptitude, ia64 is currently in incoming: http://incoming.debian.org/avant-window-navigator_0.2.6-6_ia64.changes To view the actual changelog: $ sudo aptitude install deb-gview $ deb-gview http://incoming.debian.org/aptitude_0.4.11.3-1_ia64.deb This also allows you to view the maintainer scripts, copyright, symbols file, shlibs file and any other text/manpage/image content of any .deb or .udeb in any location, including foreign architectures. To view all .debs from an upload, pass the .changes file to deb-gview instead (but note that this results in one window per .deb and all those need to be downloaded using GIO). -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
