Reading portage manpage about mirrors I didn't find the mirror type
possible values. As I could understand, there is type local as a special
mirror and then, from the example, sourceforge and gnu. Didn't
understand right how this works.

From thirdpartymirrors file I can see more examples... The mirror type
can be any label that I decide to use?

Is URI mirror:// style deprecated in ebuilds and should use
restric="mirror" instead?

I think that, in mirrors description for /etc/portage/, first paragraph
should be divided in two: the new one in  the phrase that starts with
"You may also set a special mirror type called local".

Thanks,

Samuel
