Hi
I was trying to install TinyOS today from the instructions here:
http://tinyprod.net/debian-dev/
using this command --
sudo apt-get install nesc tinyos-tools *msp430-46* avr-tinyos
Then, apt-get returned 404 errors for these packages:
http://tinyprod.net/repos/debian/pool/main/m/msp430-46/msp430-46_20120427_all.deb404
Not Found
When I tried navigating to the links I found that the exact name of the
packages have changed (probably replaced by newer versions)
msp430-46_20120715_i386.deb<http://tinyprod.net/repos/debian/pool/main/m/msp430-46/msp430-46_20120715_i386.deb>
My questions are:
1) Who should be informed for getting this corrected?
- The TinyOS package maintainers (OR)
- The Ubuntu Repository team
2) How and where is the package name 'msp430-46' getting resolved to "
msp430-46/msp430-46_20120427_all.deb<http://tinyprod.net/repos/debian/pool/main/m/msp430-46/msp430-46_20120427_all.deb>"
?
