Package: apt
Version: 1.0.9.8
Severity: important

Ports and Apt are still broken. And Apt does not honor --no-check-gpg
or --allow-unauthenticated.

I'm going to call bullshit on Message 15 at
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=826043#15. The shit
does not work.

I'm going to call bullshit on Message 65 at
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=826043#65. The
report should not have been closed.

Debian has a major engineering problem if it does not realize how
broken some of this stuff is. Its ridiculous to suffer the same
problems and errors for nearly two years. Its ridiculous to have bug
reports like 826043 with all the details but manage to avoid fixing a
problem.

See for yourself. Follow the directions at
http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports-cd/hurd-i386/current/YES_REALLY_README.txt.
Download today's image. Then try to update the VM.

It sure would be nice if someone stepped up, took ownership of these
ports, and fixed the god damn things so they "just worked".

There was a problem and it was fixed in 1.2 and 1.3. There will be
no fix for older release series. Hurd is not a release architecture,
it is not part of the stable release and it would thus be pointless
to include a fix for it in a stable update.

I'm closing this bug. Get your shit together. Your email is
inappropriate. If you experience a different bug, explain the
bug you experience. And do it for 1.3, not for stable. 

Ports are not supported in any case. Please talk to your
porters and let them talk to us instead of writing hate
emails.
