Description Dirk Wiesenthal

2014-05-21 14:41:24 CEST

The cache of the package manager may be outdated when setting up UCS@school and downloading the packages.

The user gets error messages like:
Failed to download ucs-school-umc-computerroom 5.0.4-1.141.201405061458

and the process is aborted.

A simple package_manager.update() could prevent this error.

This error is not really critical as we provide UCS@school via App Center and this repository does not change. And apt-get update runs once per hour. Still, I came across it.

May this be a problem if the UCS@school packages depend on UCS Errata (and the cache of the errata repo is outdated)?

Yes, this should be possible (=> a problem)

Should be fixed in
