From: Sthu Deus on 24 Jun 2010 13:30 Good day. Could You please explain me the situation. On aptitude update I see this: Err http://ftp2.jp.debian.org testing/updates/main Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 61.206.119.174 80] And latter I see: Get:16 http://ftp2.jp.debian.org testing/main 2010-06-23-2114.45.pdiff [372B] Get:17 http://ftp2.jp.debian.org testing/main 2010-06-23-2114.45.pdiff [372B] I do not understand how it can be: at first aptitude can not find packages, and then latter, it does. How is it? Thank You for Your time. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

How is it? Couldn't be just a network glitch or a remote server temporary error? sm01(a)stt008:~$ host -t a ftp2.jp.debian.org ftp2.jp.debian.org is an alias for cdn.debian.or.jp. cdn.debian.or.jp is an alias for jp.cdn.araki.net. jp.cdn.araki.net has address 130.54.59.159 jp.cdn.araki.net has address 130.54.59.159 jp.cdn.araki.net has address 133.5.166.3 jp.cdn.araki.net has address 133.5.166.3 jp.cdn.araki.net has address 130.54.59.159 jp.cdn.araki.net has address 133.5.166.3 jp.cdn.araki.net has address 130.54.59.159 jp.cdn.araki.net has address 130.54.59.159 There are many aliases for that node, many servers... maybe one failed at the time you were performing the "aptitude update" and then auto-jumped to another healthy one :-?

How is it? I see that the IP of ftp2.jp.debian.org has changed: ,---- | % ping ftp2.jp.debian.org | PING jp.cdn.araki.net (130.54.59.159) 56(84) bytes of data. | 64 bytes from studenno.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp (130.54.59.159): icmp_req=1 ttl=51 time=313 ms `---- Could be due to DNS round robin, or the DNS entry has been relocated temporarily because the server was non-functional (as you experienced).

How is it? Those are two different files. The first file would be located at http://ftp2.jp.debian.org/debian/testing/updates/main/<your-architecture-here>/Packages.gz (Architecture would be something like binary-i386 or binary-amd64. .gz could also be .bz2 and newer APTs also support .xz) The second file would be http://ftp2.jp.debian.org/debian/testing/main/<your-architecture-here>/Packages.diff/2010-06-23-2114.45.gz This second file is a diff between two Packages.gz files. The idea being that downloading a bunch of diffs is easier than re-downloading a large Gzip file. Now, look back at those two URLs. One major difference between them is the first is "testing/updates/main", the other is "testing/main". Having a look at the site, I see that "testing/updates/main" doesn't exist. Sounds like an error in your sources.list. > > Thank You for Your time. > > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
