A list of repos?

**flipjargendy** · 03-03-2008

Is there a list of official repos both non free and main for lenny/sid anywhere? I cannot find anything!

Thanks

(that smiley is angry!? Weird.)

Code:

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny/sid main contrib non-free

Replace Country code (us) with Country code of yours and check that in Web browser.
This is Source in India.

Code:

http://ftp.iitm.ac.in/debian/

Thanks, I'll give that one a shot and see if it has everything I need. I remember before I only had to add a couple of repos... I already have so I'm hoping this is all I will need.

Dang, it didn't work I get this output at the end of running apt-get update:

Code:

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

I hate when apt-get tells me to run apt-get update to correct the problem when that is what I just did!

I also just realized that I must have installed Linux with the wrong CD because I'm running Etch, not Lenny/Sid like I used to have. Is it a big hassle to update from Etch to Lenny/Sid?

I have updagraded to Lenny/Sid from etch only.
Try these sources:

Code:

deb http://ftp.iitm.ac.in/debian/ sid main non-free contrib
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ sid main

I will search for US source.
Execute this to upgrade:

Code:

su -
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
