http://marillat.free.fr:
Since yesterday all packages uploaded got the nice 17-Apr-1971 date,
thus apt-get is unable to see these files as news. The only solution
is to do (as root or with sudo) a "rm /var/lib/apt/lists/marillat*"
and do another "apt-get update".
However, this still will not solve the problem with many ISP caches!
Thus I suppose many marillat.free.fr users do not realize that they
are not getting new Packages.gz files, rm or not! And, there is
nothing they can do about it.
