Blag # 2.3 90001CD and 90000 CD has Broken Repositories.

Synaptic

From blag.wiki.aktivix.org

purpose of page

This page (and pages like it) have basic information on the package name in the page title. For information about pre-90k series BLAG packages, previous information has been left in. For 90k series packages, information is as up-to-date as we can make it.

90k Series

apt and 90k series

Due to upstream problems, apt is broken in 90k series BLAG. While this can be worked around, synaptic is still broken. Hopefully apt and synaptic will be back in 110k series. For 90k, the use of yum is highly recommended.
