Hi,
first of all I wish everybody out there a happy and successfull new year and happy hacking.
Now my questions: I get a lot of timeouts when I try to update trinity. Mostly because "Translation"-files where not be found. Are they really needed?
Second I would to know, if there are mirrors of the trinity repositories, perhaps faster ones near by.
Fine regards Rolf

Hi Rolf,
Could you please tell us which distro/version/architecture you are using (or "uname -a") and show us the update command being executed and the resulting text.

The mirrors are listed at http://trinitydesktop.org/mirrors.php but that website seems to be having a problem right now.
It takes a while for mirrors to be updated from the master so if you need the newest files it is best to ask for files from the master. If there is a copy on a faster mirror the master will automatically redirect you there.
Currently http://tde-mirror.yosemite.net/trinity/ is the most up-to-date fast mirror.

Hi Mike,
thanks for your response.

It's Debian wheezy amd64.
Linux schleppi2 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.63-2+deb7u2 x86_64 GNU/Linux
aptitude update gives: Ign http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net wheezy/main Translation-de_DE Ign http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net wheezy/main Translation-de Ign http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net wheezy/main Translation-en Ign http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net wheezy/main Translation-de_DE Ign http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net wheezy/main Translation-de Ign http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net wheezy/main Translation-en
So it seems, that the files are not available and causes the timeout.
Fine regards Rolf

Hi Rolf,
TTBOMK, TDE does not yet provide translated package descriptions. aptitude looks for translations but if they are not found it is harmless. Hence the "Ign" meaning that a "file not found" error is being "ignored".

This is correct. We use Canonical's Launchpad software, which (as of this writing) does not support translation files or package search indexes (e.g. apt-cache). There is a bug report open against Launchpad for the latter; I am not sure about the former.
