swaret error?


first of all, i'm running a distro named goblinx(based on slackware.) i'm looking for repositories for such things as kdetv, miro, gift....

it seems all of these repositories fail to add new packages...

i'm trying with swaret and get this when trying to add http://repository.slacky.eu/slackware-12.0/...

----

root@goblinx:~# swaret --update
swaret 1.6.2-1

[ http://repository.slacky.eu/slackware-12.0/ ]
### Fetching CHECKSUMS List File... DONE!
### Fetching FILELIST List File... DONE!
### Fetching PACKAGES List File for Packages... DONE!
### Fetching PACKAGES List File for Extra Packages... FAILED!
### Fetching ChangeLog... DONE!
=> Generating List Files... DONE!

---

i'm getting a similar error with slapt-get, too.

anyone know what could be causing the extra packages to fail on update? i've tried with many different repositories and get the same error...

thanks in advance!
