This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 4880 and 3156) --3BxOHiUSOLBmv8m4jObPc9VI0WQPV9EaH Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I asked about this issue in brief last week when I was short on time and = still grumpy from debugging my broken deployment process. Nobody answered. I do= n't know if it's because nobody cares, nobody knew what I was talking about o= r I'm just a dumb ass; but, I'll explain in any case. I'm using an in-house puppet package provider to manage installing binary= packages. One of the things that it does is download the INDEX.bz2 file f= rom the relevant package archive in order to resolve a port origin (e.g. shells/b= ash) to a definitive package name and version in a deterministic fashion. This is= necessary because the pkg_add -r logic is lacking in one regard. Often ti= mes, what is installed based on the argument to -r does not match what is actu= ally installed. The described algorithm works around that issue and has been w= orking more or less flawlessly for years now; however, as recently as last week,= the INDEX.bz2 files it depends on stopped being built. The amd64 stable archives all are missing the INDEX.bz2. They do have an INDEX-[89].bz2; however, that file is only 14 bytes which is quite obviou= sly not right and at the very least the name is not consistent with past behaviou= r. The release archives, on the other hand, seem fine. ftp> ls amd64/packages-9.2-release/INDEX* 227 Entering Passive Mode (204,152,184,73,203,10). 150 Here comes the directory listing. -rw-r--r-- 1 100 982 25504627 Sep 02 12:41 INDEX -rw-r--r-- 1 100 982 1593672 Sep 02 12:41 INDEX.bz2 -rw-r--r-- 1 100 982 113 Sep 02 12:41 INDEX.bz2.md5 -rw-r--r-- 1 100 982 148 Sep 02 12:41 INDEX.bz2.sha256 226 Directory send OK. ftp> ls amd64/packages-9-stable/INDEX* 227 Entering Passive Mode (204,152,184,73,180,118). 150 Here comes the directory listing. -rw-r--r-- 1 100 100 14 Feb 08 18:08 INDEX-9.bz2 226 Directory send OK.
