What happened to deb.mepis.org?
Posts: 10
For about the past week, from 2 different ISPs, when I try to do an apt-get update, I error out with the message:
Could not resolve 'deb.mepis.org'
Has it been renamed?

But I would have liked a note SOMEWHERE in the documentation or news to say that deb.mepis.org was being deprecated!
Fine, but...

can I really update to the new server without to enter the dependencies hell? The URL looks like this directory is specific to the new MEPIS version. I don't know what MEPIS version I've installed, but my installation is from circa two years ago and I updated already my distribution through the common debian (unstable/testing) servers.

Same problem for me, please
