Package: apt
Version: 0.8.1
Severity: normal
Hi,
some files on http://www.debian-multimedia.org have 0 bytes (specifically e.g.
http://www.debian-multimedia.org/dists/sid/non-free/i18n/*) and apt-get update
stalls with...
Get:10 http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid/non-free i386 Packages [5.738B]
99% [5 Translation-en bzip2 0B]
.... forever (did look like a loop). I had a look with strace and gdb and realised
a little while after the files mentioned had 0 bytes on the mirror.
I know this mirror is not an official one, but I consider this a bug in apt, as
for whatever reason a mirror could be somewhat broken and apt should time-out at
least eventually, give an error message about the problem itself or (worst
solution) ignore the brokenness (if possible in a reasonable manner)
regards
Michael

Closes: 523919 595428 595557 595691
Changes:
apt (0.8.2) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Manpages translations ]
* Spanish (Omar Campagne). Closes: #595557
.
[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/versionmatch.cc:
- do not accept 'Pin: origin "' (missing closing ") as a valid
way to pin a local archive: either "" or none…
* apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
- create Dir::Log if needed to support /var/log as tmpfs or similar,
inspired by Thomas Bechtold, thanks! (Closes: #523919, LP: #220239)
* apt-pkg/indexcopy.cc:
- support really still the APT::GPGV::TrustedKeyring setting,
as it breaks d-i badly otherwise (Closes: #595428)
* cmdline/apt-key:
- support also Dir::Etc::Trusted so that apt-key works in the same
way as the library part which works with the trusted files
* methods/{gzip,bzip2}.cc:
- empty files can never be valid archives (Closes: #595691)
