Re: ISO not found?
When adding the new mirror. dist-upgrade wants to "upgrade" many installed
packages... with ones of the same version!
Example:
ike:/home/apt-drink# apt-cache policy ttf-freefont
ttf-freefont:
Installed: 20031008-1.1
Candidate: 20031008-1.1
Version table:
20031008-1.1 0
500 http://amd64.debian.net sid/main Packages
*** 20031008-1.1 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Any hints on why can this be happening?
TIA,
Rafael Rodríguez
