Got it,

As you can see from my location I have fallen victim to 'The Great (fire)Wall'

Setting Synaptic to run through my proxy has solved the problem.


Marillat must be seen as some threat to the workers paradise

Ho ho


Edit:

Note,

Anybody know how I can get the synaptic proxy to ask for my proxy password?
