Re: Issue with Bullseye Packages.xz on ftp.debian.org



Hi,

(I've seen your follow-up but I'll reply anyway.)

You're not actually quoting any error messages, or giving any details,
merely pointing out that there are no non-free packages on amd64, for
bullseye, to be used by the installer. That's not a bug.

(In passing, we have hfsprogs-udeb in testing/unstable now.)

Are you confusing those two?
 - https://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/bullseye/non-free/debian-installer/binary-amd64/Packages.xz
 - https://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/bullseye/non-free/binary-amd64/Packages.xz

The first one lists udebs, to be used by the installer; the second one
lists debs, to be installed in the target system.


Cheers,
