Bug#472490: packages.debian.org volatile archive referenced incorrectly



Package: www.debian.org
Severity: minor

Hi!

Thank you very much for rebuilding packages.debian.org last year. Even
before that it was a very useful tool. The rebuild made it so much
better still. I was greatly impressed by such a high quality tool.

However, let me suggest one slight improvement: The download page of a
volatile package, for instance

  http://packages.debian.org/etch-volatile/amd64/clamav/download

says to insert this into my sources.list:

  deb http://volatile.debian.net/debian-volatile etch-volatile main
                                                    ^^^
which will lead to the following error:

  Failed to fetch
http://volatile.debian.net/debian-volatile/dists/etch-volatile/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz
 404 Not Found

I have found the correct entry in sources.list to be:

  deb http://volatile.debian.net/debian-volatile etch/volatile main
                                                    ^^^
I can't tell if this error is caused by a programming bug or bad data.
Either way I suggest to correct it, if it can easily be done.

best regards
