Hm, netselect-apt should make this pretty easy, i think. Btw. it is not as easy as you think. For example multi user systems which different locales for different user. Which should be the default mirror and so on. > The user should get continental selection between Europe, Africa, Asia, > North America, South America.

One easy solution would be run ,---- | netselect-apt -o /tmp/sources.list && | cat /tmp/sources.list >> /et/apt/sources.list && | rm /tmp/sources.list `---- and have no debian sources in /et/apt/sources.list Please note that this have a litte problem, if /tmp/sources.list is a symlink to another file. So if you want to use this in productive environment please use mktemp. Btw. if you use this solution, the problem is that you must have a network connection that this will work. > M.
