<p dir="auto">I’m seeing an issue with Debian connectors in ProGet 2026.03 when using Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04 repositories.</p>
<p dir="auto">The connector configuration itself is valid, for example:</p>
<p dir="auto"><img src="/assets/uploads/files/1786093345117-38f0d822-548c-40e4-80a7-ecb673a7b540-image.jpeg" alt="38f0d822-548c-40e4-80a7-ecb673a7b540-image.jpeg" class=" img-fluid img-markdown" /></p>
<p dir="auto">and similarly:</p>
<p dir="auto"><img src="/assets/uploads/files/1786093398321-56bfecff-037c-4c9f-9f7e-ed070d27f2a3-image.jpeg" alt="56bfecff-037c-4c9f-9f7e-ed070d27f2a3-image.jpeg" class=" img-fluid img-markdown" /></p>
<p dir="auto">ProGet reports that the local index was successfully updated, but the connector contains no packages. The generated local index remains essentially empty, around 32 KB.</p>
<p dir="auto">For comparison, on the same ProGet instance:</p>
<p dir="auto">Ubuntu 22.04:<br />
jammy                 -&gt; works<br />
jammy-updates         -&gt; empty index with Components: all<br />
jammy-security        -&gt; empty index with Components: all</p>
<p dir="auto">Ubuntu 24.04:<br />
noble                 -&gt; works<br />
noble-updates         -&gt; works<br />
noble-security        -&gt; works</p>
<p dir="auto">Ubuntu 26.04:<br />
resolute                 -&gt; works<br />
resolute-updates         -&gt; works<br />
resolute-security        -&gt; works</p>
<p dir="auto">The issue also occurs with Ubuntu 20.04.</p>
<p dir="auto">Network connectivity does not appear to be involved. From the ProGet host, the Ubuntu repository metadata can be downloaded successfully.</p>
<p dir="auto">I also deleted the ProGet local connector index and allowed ProGet to rebuild it. ProGet again reported that the local index had been updated successfully, but the resulting index still contained no packages.</p>
<p dir="auto">The local index sizes made the issue clear:</p>
<p dir="auto">ubuntu-jammy             -&gt; 134 MB<br />
ubuntu-jammy-updates     -&gt; 32 KB<br />
ubuntu-jammy-security    -&gt; 32 KB</p>
<p dir="auto">ubuntu-noble             -&gt; 152 MB<br />
ubuntu-noble-security    -&gt; 34 MB<br />
ubuntu-noble-updates     -&gt; 44 MB</p>
<p dir="auto">I then changed the affected connectors from:</p>
<p dir="auto">Components: all</p>
<p dir="auto">to:</p>
<p dir="auto">Components: main restricted universe multiverse</p>
<p dir="auto">After doing this, ProGet indexed the packages correctly and the repositories started working normally.</p>
<p dir="auto">So the issue seems to be specifically related to the special all value for Debian connector components. It works correctly for newer Ubuntu releases such as 24.04 and 26.04, but produces an empty local index for Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04.</p>
<p dir="auto">The particularly confusing part is that ProGet reports the local index as successfully updated even though no packages were indexed.</p>
<p dir="auto">Thank you for your time and help.</p>
<p dir="auto">Kind Regards.</p>

<p dir="auto">This behavior is somewhat expected.</p>
<p dir="auto">I'm not really a Debian expert or anything... but when it comes to a Debian repository index, <code>all</code> is actually the name of a component.</p>
<p dir="auto">When we look the index files, we can see:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>ubuntu-jammy</code> has <code>all</code> components</li>
<li><code>ubuntu-jammy-updates</code> has no <code>all</code> components</li>
<li><code>ubuntu-jammy-security</code>  has no <code>all</code> components</li>
<li><code>ubuntu-noble</code> has <code>all</code> components</li>
<li><code>ubuntu-noble-security</code> has <code>all</code> components</li>
<li><code>ubuntu-noble-updates</code> has <code>all</code> components</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">I would have thought that <code>any</code> means "any component", but apparently it doesn't. So I guess you have to specify that list if you want it to work.</p>
