I installed the update, ran "apt-get mirror-select", and got "E: Invalid operation mirror-select". A total uninstall and reinstall of apt still generates the same error message. After reading the archives of the Fedora 4 test list my take is that the Fedora folks will not fix mirror-select. Their position is that a) there are no apt-get mirrors or b) they cannot legally reference available apt-get repos. > -- > Michael Schwendt <mschwendt@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > Fedora Core release 4 (Stentz) - Linux 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 > loadavg: 1.06 1.06 1.09 >
