apt-get install stopped working
apt-get install on my woody system has stopped working.
I can reinstall already installed packages but can not install
any new packages. Whenever I run "apt-get install" I get a response
like the following:
apt-get install saytime
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package saytime has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
E: Package saytime has no installation candidate
I've tried "apt-get clean" and "apt-get update". I've scrutinized the lines
in sources.list and even tried alternate sites. Downloading the packages from
the sites in sources.list and installing them with dpkg works fine.
Does any one recognize this?
