I suppose Debian is promoting one-phase mirroring and two phase mirroring is "roll your own". If you want me to tell my administrator to do something, I need something succinct, like "apt-get install two-phase-mirroring". Jeroen> #6786 doesn't need to be fixed for this, the mirror admin of Jeroen> xxxxxx.linux.org.xx just needs to implement two-phase mirroring, Jeroen> something that anyone with a bit shell/rsync foo can implement on Jeroen> his/her own, and ttbomk, already a lot of mirrors actually _do_. If this two-phase-mirroring is the way to go, then there ought to be a standard package to do it. How can there be 10000+ packages but no package to make sure the 10000+ packages get mirrored properly? Any approved recommended debugged method would certainly have its own package, where the administrator would merely enter some configuration parameters in some /etc file. Does http://www.debian.org/mirror/ at least have the two-phase-mirroring script? Is there any official documentation? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
