often 404 errors are caused by either an out of date mirror, or one that is in the mids of syncing. It can also be caused by not running an apt-get update before you install your packages. Lenny is a moving target so if you want reliable mirrors run testing. Packages change so often in lenny that the packages files and the package pool can be out of date for a time. Testing tends to be less of a moving target; although not as up to date as unstable. I run Ubuntu here these days as I like the 6 monthly release cycle but i'm not running speakup on my boxes; I ssh in from Windows boxes as the servers are behind a closed door.

I got all my packages installed and I even had to go after espeak-dev to make things all right. It would be nice if all mirrors were complete and not have these broken links. Anyway when the packages are available the system works pretty cool. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEAREDAAYFAkj5M+QACgkQWSjv55S0LfH2mACfVld94OalsxKnNmQq0QOMI90t dI0AoLTwOtFvnyB5QIT8CQJE3tsl/Xud =lz+E -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
