Hi guys,
After discovering the joy that is the debian-ports archive, I saw a
recent
post on this list which suggested using ftp.parisc-linux.org instead:
Actually, you should use ftp.parisc-linux.org in addition to what's on
ports. What's on ftp.parisc-linux.org
is far from complete but it's a huge step forward.

Unfortunately, since I'm interested in a fresh install rather than an
upgrade, debootstrap doesn't like the layout of the mirror because the
Release/InRelease files don't sit under dists, which is hardcoded
all over
the debootstrap sources:
$ sudo debootstrap --verbose --no-check-gpg --arch=hppa --foreign
unstable . ftp://ftp.parisc-linux.org/debian-ports/unstable
I: Retrieving InRelease
I: Failed to retrieve InRelease
I: Retrieving Release
E: Failed getting release file
ftp://ftp.parisc-linux.org/debian-ports/unstable/dists/unstable/Release
Would it be possible to shuffle things around on the mirror please?
It'd be
great to have something recent working again, as I'm still on Sarge...
At the moment, I don't think we have an InRelease file. I also don't
know how we would generate
or maintain it. However, it's probably needed if we are going to get
a buildd going again. Maybe Helge
knows how to do this.
