Missing packages for Jessie. Incomplete install



Hi,

I'm trying since yesterday to reinstall a stable debian system on powerbook G4 with a netinstall cd. I did it smoothly several months ago.

I initially thought I had problems with my lan connection, but it's not the case.

Several packages are now missing for a complete install. When I tried to install the mate desktop tasksel, a lot of packages were missing.

For instance: xauth_1.0.9-1, libxau6_1.0.8-1 and libedit2_3.1-20140620-2 are missing on the server when trying to install  the ssh-server task with tasksel.

I tried with several debian mirrors.

When I search for info on xauth via https://packages.debian.org/jessie/powerpc/xauth/download,

i see that the ppc version this one is missing on all the mirrors I tried and even on ftp.debian.org


What happened ? I've found that there was a 8.11-1 security release for Jessie on the 14th of february which isn't available for powerpc. Is it related ?


Isn't Jessie not installable anymore ?

And if not, would a dualboot with OSX be possible with buster and grub ? Which cd image would work ?


Thanks,

Bertrand Dekoninck
