[02:11] <hendry> Kamion: anonftpsync: line 87: lockfile: command not found
[02:11] <Kamion> install whatever package it is that provides that
[02:12] <hendry> ah procmail
[02:39] <hendry> perry$ sh update-local-indices
[02:39] <hendry> find: pool: No such file or directory
[02:39] <hendry> find: pool: No such file or directory
[02:39] <hendry> E: Opening configuration file apt-ftparchive.conf - ifstream::ifstream (2 No such file or directory)
[02:39] <hendry> this find 'pool/local'
[02:40] <hendry> perry$ ls pool/
[02:40] <hendry> main  restricted
[02:40] <hendry> is that an extra dir 'local' you have Kamion ?
[02:41] <hendry> Kamion: and could I please get a copy of apt-ftparchive.conf ?
[02:48] <Kamion> it's not important, but I'll point you to it tomorrow morning
[02:48] <Kamion> just don't bother running update-local-indices if you don't have any local packages
[02:49] <hendry> ok, well I still need to generate package lists
[02:49] <Kamion> I can't do anything much with the source tree now as my laptop is busy dealing with a hard drive failure
[02:49] <hendry> Kamion: damn!
[02:49] <hendry> Kamion: thinkpad?
[02:49] <Kamion> package lists> do that on your archive machine, surely ...
[02:49] <Kamion> no, powerbook
[02:50] <hendry> oh yeah, but I want to see your apt-ftparchive.conf
[02:50] <Kamion> I doubt it will help you much anyway
[02:50] <Kamion> try starting with dak CVS or something instead, or google
[02:50] <hendry> ok, I'll figure it out
[02:51] <hendry> so you run PPC or do you have a Macpro?
[02:51] <Kamion> you want a real archive example, not the random hack I did
[02:51] <Kamion> powerpc
[02:51] <hendry> Kamion: are you going to a Macpro you think?
[02:51] <Kamion> not in the near future, saving for a house rather than computers right now
[02:51] <Kamion> maybe eventually
[02:52] <hendry> oh well
[02:52] <Kamion> I need to work on making bootable CDs for the Intel Macs though
[03:02] <hendry> my mirror didn't have /srv/cdimage.no-name-yet.com/ftp/dists/dapper/main/debian-installer
[03:02] <hendry> "debian-installer"
[03:02] <hendry> where should I snag that from?
[03:09] <Kamion> your mirror is lame; use a better one
[03:10] <hendry> ok
[03:18] <hendry> i think i missed the section in my debmirror invocation
[03:19] <hendry> yeah, that was it
[04:05] <hendry> i need a way of putting my packages in
[04:05] <hendry> though mini-dinstall doesn't arrange my packages right
[04:07] <hendry> Kamion: you about?
[04:09] <Kamion> hendry: briefly
[04:09] <hendry> Kamion: mini-dinstall doesn't seem to put packages in the right style
[04:09] <hendry> so what should I use instead?
[04:09] <hendry> copying in by hand is annoying :)
[04:09] <Kamion> I've never used mini-dinstall, I'm afraid; I'm sorry, not an expert on archive management
[04:09] <hendry> Kamion: i thought you wrote it
[04:09] <Kamion> strcmp("Watson", "Walters") != 0
[04:10] <hendry> oops ok
[04:10] <hendry> Kamion: ok, i'll figure it out
[04:10] <Kamion> sorry I can't help
[04:10] <hendry> nps
[04:10] <Kamion> I only ever work with archives somebody else is running
[04:14] <makx> hendry: if you use mini-dinstall dupload directly the debs to the dir you want
[04:17] <hendry> makx: well it needs to create the appropriate directory
[04:17] <hendry> e.g. g/gnet/libgnet2.0-0_2.0.7-1_i386.deb
[04:18] <hendry> pool/main
[04:30] <makx> hendry: afaik mini-dinstall only supports flat archive
[04:30] <makx> aka everything in one dir.
[04:30] <makx> dist of course
[04:32] <makx> the debian bts has a patch to extend mini-dinstall afair, but no idea about it's quality
