 Should jigdo-mirror be the new standard method for mirroring CDs?
 Unfortunately, I have received next to no feedback about jigdo-mirror,
 for all I know it might still contain some bugs.

I tried it (and I gave you a some feedback on it - see this list 2002.07.23
16:46 Debian 3.0 release. Jigdo files available)

In summary 'it works'. Last time I updated it didn't do CDs 1 and 7 of the
i386 set but did do my arm and source CDs. This seemed to be because I had
mismatched .jgdo and .template files for these CDs.

As mattias said, if it gave you less info, essentially just highlighting
which CDs failed, that would be helpful.

Lots of debug info (like wget output) that for the most part isn't needed,
what I would like is a summary of what cds weren't generated successfully.

Otherwise I think that the only modification I did was up the number of
max files do be downloaded from fallback server to enough. The script
worked.

Worked great for all woody images with a local apt-proxy mirror as 
backend. This way i generated successfully all woody images 
(bin+source) and filled my local mirror with the missing files. Only 
apt-proxy needed some accommodation to handle other filetypes than .deb.

Hiho,

   Er, report a bug against the pseudo-image-kit for being broken?
  
  Or use jigdo instead.  No one is working on pik anymore, and it's not the
  recommended method for a mirror, either.
Ok, thanks. I followed the instructions on:

http://www.debian.org/CD/mirroring/

which does not mention jigdo but the debcdmirror/pik.
I've cc:'d [EMAIL PROTECTED], so I hope they will
update the page.

I will have a look at jigdo.

 And on related note, [EMAIL PROTECTED] looks like a more
 appropriate place to ask this message :)
Indeed, I wasn't aware of that, and of course I thought
cd-mirroring is of course on-topic, here. Sorry. :)

Thanks  best regards,
 Daniel
