Packages download is obstructed
Hello.
I understand that you made some maintenance for
network switch.
Apparently after it package download became not very
trivial task.
On the last stage when we click on the target. Say on
the page
http://packages.debian.org/stable/admin/aboot-base I
click on "all" in the "Download aboot-base" table I am
navegated to the page:
"
packages.debian.org is down at the moment due to
performance issues.
We apologize for any inconvenience and hope to have
service restored as soon as possible.
We're working on resurrecting this service but it will
take some time.
You can use apt-file, apt-cache search and findpkg
(--> Google) as a temporary replacement."
It lasts for about 2 weeks.
Well, I can go to ftp server that I found in apt
config
and than I see the path in url string:
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=all&file=pool%2Fmain%2Fa%2Faboot%2Faboot-base_0.9b-3_all.deb&md5sum=0e88dd0bdfffc32a41d496e2ca444256&arch=all&type=main
but really it's not the most convenient way and
definitely it's not designed for it.
Regards,
Yury Dubinsky
