I was able to get apt working again by manually installing the following from ftp://ftp.altlinux.com/pub/distributions/ALTLinux/Sisyphus/i586/RPMS.base/. libapt-0.5.15cnc6-alt16.i586.rpm apt-0.5.15cnc6-alt16.i586.rpm apt-conf-sisyphus-1.17-alt2.noarch.rpm The babelfish Russion to English translator seems to work well. This will allow me to read the blog that you listed below and read the Russion postings at bugzilla.altlinux.org. I don't mind doing this. I don't think there are many folks on this mailing list since it has almost zero activity but I am a big Alt Linux fan (because I think Sisyphus is wonderful) and I'd like to continue to have access to help when I run into issues. Again, I appreciate your response to my post. Thanks, Aaron McDonald ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes, the signature was changing (with build process). Please download and install updated apt-conf binary package by hand, then apt should work again. Sorry, we should have announced this in community-en@ too -- didn't know there _are_ Sisyphus users here. If grokking automated translations (like babelfish.altavista.com or translate.ru's) is OK with you, please look at those of http://www.freesource.info/wiki/AltLinux/ZamechanijaPoObnovleniju -- we sorta maintain the mine map there. In short, after the key has been changed, there was also: * an alert that using Linux 2.6.12's vfat driver in sync mode is especially deadly for Flash media (syncs are being done on virtually every operation, rapidly starving FAT area) * xorg upgrade could break *dm logins -- /etc/X11/xinit.d/xkb would better get replaced with a script pasted in http://lists.altlinux.ru/pipermail/sisyphus/2005-August/066256.html (well could have been fixed already, don't know) * xorg upgrade to 6.9RC will render current version of ATI fglrx incompatible (updated version should ship at the end of the month). Brave souls can join free "ati" driver testing, since the updated one should support R300-based cards too * firefox-1.0.6-alt3 is broken [updated since] * etcnet-0.7.11-alt1 is broken [too] * DejaVu fonts v1.13 has broken DejaVu Sans Mono; upstream's notified but it's proposed to stick with 1.12 for the time being PS: I'm quite sorry for such a request but how many of us are here, actually? Maybe we could consider bridging things somehow. -- ---- WBR, Michael Shigorin ------ Linux.Kiev http://www.linux.kiev.ua/
