How To: Make Your Own Ubuntu Repository DVDs

yes. i found that key in software sources.
but my disk is not full. there is till now 17.8 gb is free.

OK—But then, did you run this command line:

sudo apt-key exportall | gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring trustedkeys.gpg --import

If so, did it work? Does your debmirror command work after that?

You may have that much left in free space but if I remember correctly Linux leaves a certain percentage so it can work on the file system. So if you have a 200gb disk and you now have only 17.8gb free the disk would "appear" full.

It is strange to me that this is something that has only just occurred. Files contained in / don;t just change themselves so I am leaning towards a full disk scenario like luvr.

Unfortunately I have a full day today and it is 5,45am right now. I will check your attachment when I can later today or tomorrow if your problem isn't fixed yet.

Just to double-check: I notice that you are downloading into some “/win” directory tree—which I would guess is a Windows disk, right? Are you sure, then, that that isn't full, either?

here is those files in the LWP.tar.gz fileAttachment 161325

Line 105 of Protocol.pm is

            open(my $fh, ">", $arg) or die "Can't write to '$arg': $!";

Now if you take a look at it in the actual file the word "Can't" appears to have a problem (i.e. "Can" is in black while "'t" is in pink. From my limited knowledge of scripting when a line, or word, takes on a colour unless there is an "argument" to change it and that cannot happen part way through a word.

Line 841-844 of UserAgent.pm is

    my $response = $self->request($request, $tmpfile);
    if ( $response->header('X-Died') ) {
	die $response->header('X-Died');

Looking at the last line and comparing it to the line above, again from my limited knowledge of scripting, the last line is missing a ( before the $response and a ) after the '). Please also note the spacing.

I must say that I am just taking a guess here.

You're certainly right that Linux reserves a percentage of the space for system work, but I think that this system-reserved space will be counted as "in use," not as "free."

So, in my opinion, if the system tells you that it has 17.8 GB free, then that's 17.8 GB free for you to use, not 17.8 GB minus the system-reserved space.

I read it and can categorically state that it is not a problem for everyone. It does not affect my system in the way that bug describes. You may also note, you will have to read back through this thread to see it again, that I have played with both debmirror_20070123ubuntu1 and debmirror_20070123ubuntu3 and have never come across the issue described by you or the bug reports OP. I do get the "can't find release gpg" but the download continues as it should in very other manner.

I'm not saying it doesn't exist, although I agree with Rees Cook's marking as invalid even after you reopened it from that state, as very little information exists to help others duplicate it. I think that a little bit more detective work is in order on that bug, and not having it I can't do any, to see why it appears to be a problem on so few a number of systems.

It is not on few systems, it happens even on a fresh installs of Ubuntu OS, I used to use debmirror from debian box by copying it into /usr/bin, but since Karmic, debian's version of debmirror has changed as will.

Anyway my debmirror version is 1:2.4.4ubuntu2(lucid)

Thank you

Lets not turn this into a semantic debate.

What I am saying is that the bug report has only 2 confirmed cases that do not complete a download as it should, compare that to the number of people who use debmirror and it is only a few systems. My systems work as they did before except that I get a warning about gpg key yet the systems still download as they should with no difficulty.

I used to use debmirror from debian box by copying it into /usr/bin, but since Karmic, debian's version of debmirror has changed as will.

That will probably be because Debian and Ubuntu devs are often, not always, one and the same person.

May I respectfully suggest you and our new friend do a little detective work and try to add more to the bug report because as it is you are 1 of 3 people that we know of who have this issue. If it is to be fixed properly those that have it will need to help others who don't try to fix it.
