Hi!

Debmirror is a script written in perl so there's not many problems to solve to get it running.
I used CPAN : www.cpan.org


perl -MCPAN -e shell;

Thirs you can update perl to the latest version :
type : install B, then answer all questions and it's done :)

The each time you get an error when trying to launch debmirror (like 
Compress/Zlib not found),
type : install Compress::Zlib

That's all !
