Hi folks,

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ lenny main

deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main contrib

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

# apt-file update

Can't get http://security.debian.org/dists/lenny/updates/Contents-i386.gz

Please advise how to fix the problem. TIA

To create the database, you need to run apt-file as root.

su -
apt-file update

Hi reed9,

Yes, I did it in the same way as advised, in the super root mode.

Just re-tried it with same result;

# su -
root@vzd4:~# apt-file update

Can't get http://security.debian.org/dists/lenny/updates/Contents-i386.gz

Hi evils casper,


Thanks for your advice.

I suppose it doesn't affect running "apt-file search /bin/package_name"
