apt and qt4-X11 bugs in testing upgrade?

Greetings all

Has anyone else come across this when upgrading testing using Update
Manager? I'm using Gnome, but suspect that that doesn't matter too much
given this is system-wide rather than DE-specific.

Updates have been backed up for several days now due to some errors with
apt and qt4-X11 bugs. apt safe-upgrade produces this error:

Code:



Retrieving bug reports... Done

Parsing Found/Fixed information... Done

critical bugs of apt (0.7.25.3 -> 0.8.0) <marked as done in some version>

 #595691 - apt-get updates stalls forever if some files on mirror have 

0 bytes (Fixed: apt/0.8.2)



   Merged with: 595812

grave bugs of apt (0.7.25.3 -> 0.8.0) <marked as done in some version>

 #595428 - apt again lost support for Apt::GPGV::TrustedKeyring (Fixed: 

apt/0.8.2)



grave bugs of system-config-printer-kde (4:4.4.5-1 -> 4:4.4.5-2) <unfixed>

 #596249 - system-config-printer-kde: can't load module in systemsettings

Summary:

 apt(2 bugs), system-config-printer-kde(1 bug)

Are you sure you want to install/upgrade the above packages? [Y/n/?/...]

I ran apt-get autoclean and a string of files were deleted, and then I
ran aptitude safe-upgrade, and got the same output.

But, using the Update Manager which works with synaptic, the grave bugs
error is given as before, and when I enter 'n' to proceeding, the
following output pops up:

Code:



W: Failed to fetch 

http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/pool/main/q/qt4-x11/libqtgui4_4.6.3-1+b1_i386.deb



  Hash Sum mismatch



W: Failed to fetch 

http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/pool/main/q/qt4-x11/libqt4-xmlpatterns_4.6.3-1+b1_i386.deb



  Hash Sum mismatch

So in addition to the grave bugs in apt there are hash sum errors in
qt4-X11 files? How do I sidestep these bugs and try to maintain an
otherwise up-to-date system?

Thanks for thoughts.

AG

I waited for a day, and then retried. The files with the hash mismatch
were by then corrected and safe, so I could proceed.

Maybe the mirror you're using isn't being updated, ATM.

That's quite possible - hadn't considered that. However, the UK must
still be on the British summer holidays because this has been several
days (better part of the week). I'll give it a few more days and deal
with the backlog. I'll presume that this refresh will also clear out
the old apt related bug.

I'm selfishly relieved that it wasn't something specific to my machine :-)

Peace

I'm in the UK too, using http://ft.uk.debian.org.

I had to change from using the uk mirror to using ftp.debian.org due to
needing to install something and the need to upgrade the qt libs was
blocking me :( I shall try changing back now, because my download
speed from this server is pretty low! Thanks!

Typo; should be http://ftp.uk.debian.org, of course.
