Soooo...ibiblio is being scrapped?  

What changes do I need to make in Synaptic?


Really shouldn't be using ibiblio in the first place! It was the server that all the other repositories were using to sync with.  But hey things change with time.


I always/sometimes get confused with ibiblio and other repo stuff.

So, ibiblo should not be checked?  Mine says something about megagames.


Megagames should be come from the ftp.vim.org repo not anything to do with the ibiblio repo.  As far as ibiblio, I am not sure what its status will be or become.


What are meagames?  Do i need it? Seems like all I should have is one repo checked, correct?  (Everyone collectively rolls eyes. ;D ;) ;) ;)
EDIT -- BTW, oi just checked. The other repo checked (other than heanet) is http://ftp.vim.org/ibiblio/distributions/pclinuxos/megagames/apt/.  tt's the same repo you just mentioned?  ftp.vim.org.

Looking here
http://ftp.vim.org/ibiblio/distributions/
it appears that PCLOS is no longer listed, hence your 404.

There is a notice in the forum from Pinoc about expecting such events as the changes to the syncing of the mirrors is rolled out.

the Dutch mirror path has changed and it populating right now. I will update you with the new path as soon as it completes, hopefully tomorrow, then you can use that super-fast server to update your system and download all isos we have...  ;D

What are meagames?



Megagames are all the large (in file size) games that are available. For Example FGFS (Flight Gear) Those files are all in a repo to their own.

 Do i need it?



Only if you want to install a game from that repo.

Seems like all I should have is one repo checked, correct?  (Everyone collectively rolls eyes. ;D ;) ;) ;)



Since it is a repo all to itself. No other repos contain the meagame section. It can safely be checked along with another regular repo.  IE: heanet and ftp.vim.org can be selected together.

EDIT -- BTW, oi just checked. The other repo checked (other than heanet) is http://ftp.vim.org/ibiblio/distributions/pclinuxos/megagames/apt/.  tt's the same repo you just mentioned?  ftp.vim.org.
