You are indeed right.
Actually my Debian installation is keeping back my package for whatever reason.. Neither "apt-get upgrade" or "apt-get dist-upgrade" wants to update the package.
Any idea why?
When doing this on a new system I had a conflict with some package (can't remember which), but it work when issuing "aptitude install nav", try using aptitude instead of apt-get as it seems to be 'smarter' in some cases.
Hi,
We've just tried to run the aptitude upgrade on our NAV server and hit an error (or two).
Here is our sources:
# cat sources.list # # deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 r3 _Etch_ - Official i386 NETINST Binary-1 20080218-14:15]/ etch contrib main

# TJC 23/02/09 Added for Nav 3.5.0 deb http://backports.org/debian etch-backports main
And here is the output of the update:

The public key warning is a warning, but there are hard errors after that.
Is our source list appropriate or do we need some changes?
Or is it some aptitude config elsewhere that needs changing or do we need to flush out the cache we have built up over time (the 'clean' option)? As you can probably tell, I'm not an aptitude guru.
Thanks!
