Not able to launch Automatic Downloads for LottaNZB

[Mike O'Donnell]

After setting automatic downloading of updates with LottaNZB I get the following message in Update Manager:

Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/lottanzb/ppa/ubuntu/dists/hardy/Release Unable to find expected entry deb-src/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

I am not sure if this is a lottaNZB server problem or not.

I have never filed a bug report before, If this is not the correct protocol, I apologize.

Hi Mike O'Donnell,

I'm really sorry that it took me so long to answer you, especially since this was your very first bug report. You didn't do anything wrong.

A new version of LottaNZB (0.5) has been released yesterday and I just uploaded the new version to the LottaNZB PPA, used for the automatic updates. While the previous package for Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) was only a copy of the Ubuntu 9.04 package, this time, I told Launchpad to create a package for each Ubuntu version. I really wonder if you still get an error message in the update manager. Have you updated to a newer version of Ubuntu since you reported this bug (not that you have to ;-))?

Regards,
Severin

Marking the bug as incomplete. This only means that I need up-to-date information about the bug. :-)

Please note that I removed the package again because LottaNZB 0.5 apparently doesn't run on Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) and Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid). I'll keep you and everyone else updated at lottanzb.org.

Closing this bug report as no package is available for Hardy anymore in LottaNZB's PPA as stated in the previous comment. You might want to upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04, which supports the most recent version of LottaNZB.
