Either way I don't think so, please see |fernst@live:~$ apt-cache policy lynx-ssl |lynx-ssl: | Installed: (none) | Candidate: 1:2.8.4.1b-3.1 | Version Table: | 1:2.8.4.1b-3.1 0 | 500 http://security.debian.org woody/updates/main Packages | 1:2.8.4.1b-3 0 | 500 http://ftp2.de.debian.org woody/non-US/main Packages Well, I don't know what's going on at Vincent's, but I'd be surprised if reportbug couldn't handle security.debian.org as a source of upgrades... Hm, looking at the source it appears reportbug will only check packages.debian.org, but this should be sufficient, as security updates get listed there as well. Possibly it's just some temporary hickup, after all this is DSA-210 from 13 Dec 2002 00:41:26 +0100. Vincent, did you try it again later? I just tried the same here and although accessing packages.debian.org was quite slow I was able to proceed... Cheers, Flo
