After I loaded the new apt.conf file. I get the following error: E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/http could not be found. Looking in /usr/lib/apt ,I have no methods directory however http (as well as cdrom ftp copy file gpz gzip) is in /usr/lib/apt . I am using RH7.2 . Should I create a methods directory and move those files there? Thanks Jim
