Subject: dselect's apt access method doesn't download linked files using ftp
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.31
Severity: critical
The above dpkg on slink doesn't follow symlinks on the ftp site and doesn't
complete successfully, so I can't use dselect to install things via ftp.
The error dselect/apt gives if 550 <filename goes here> not a plain file.
I'm using linux 2.0.36
