I tried to update my Subversion Client und Squeeze with 1.7. Therefore I extended the "/etc/apt/sources.list" with

deb http://opensource.wandisco.com/debian/ squeeze svn17

Downloaded their key from http://opensource.wandisco.com/wandisco-debian.gpg and added it to "apt-key".

But if i run now "apt-get update" I get some connection errors:

Get:1 http://opensource.wandisco.com squeeze Release.gpg [197 B]
Err http://opensource.wandisco.com/debian/ squeeze/svn17 Translation-en
  Connection failed

W: Failed to fetch http://opensource.wandisco.com/debian/dists/squeeze/svn17/binary-amd64/Packages.gz  Connection failed

E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

As expected the database did not get any update and I can't upgrade the SVN client.

If I manually surf to http://opensource.wandisco.com/debian/dists/squeeze/svn17 everything seems to be in place.

Why is the update failing?

root@squeeze:~# aptitude update && aptitude install subversion
root@squeeze:~# svn --version

  • I did exactly this, and end up by the aptitude update with the same problem. :(

  • No proxy is defined. Even when I try to get the files from my client pc it's not working, because there is no i18n folder, which is expected.

  • subversion is already installed in version 1.6: aptitude install subversion No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed. 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 16 not upgraded. Need to get 0 B of archives. After unpacking 0 B will be used.
