Re: apts: something wicked happend resolving 'http.us.debian.org/http '
Hi;
I have been bitten with this twice now, so I think that there is more
than one issue here.
The first time I had just restarted my cron updates after having shut them
down as soon as the glib problem was reported on this listmail.
I mailed the list on Oct 16,see thread"still cannot access DEbian.org"
I use postfix as my MTA so it was working then -after- the error from
apt-get update, however the following day when I tried to reply to Jason
Gunthorpe, postfix failed on sending with the mail stuck in the mail queue.
I completely rebuilt the installation from Potato CD's,no woody aps,and all
worked fine until I tried to install Pysol from woody,to get sound.
Apt-get -d install pysol retrieved nine glib6 related files so figuring
that the library screwup had been resolved from comments on the
list I installed them.
Postfix broke with a stuck mail queue, apt-get broke again and I have just
finished reinstalling potato on a separate drive to enable mail.
I reckon I will stay down here for mail until I can find out how to
repair woody 'cos there is a heap off apps there I don't have room
for on this drive.

Happy linuxing.
Oh! Yes Pysol with sound works great.
