AFAIK this is the first big one which phased out the old sh*t anonftpsync. And then, this one is the one officially supported by Debians mirroradm group... I don't believe there is a rewrite of this coming and any big changes done since this exists have taking PAINS to keep old setups of it working without needing changes from the admin (unless you want to use a new feature). What happened to anonftpsync anyway ... That was basically broken sh*t and so it went away when ftpsync came... And for those who want this as a package: Go and do it. Have fun. There won't be any blocker from us, it is just that neither I nor (appearantly) anyone else in the mirroradm group has seen any reason to put our time into it. First, it is distributed on every Debian mirror in project/ftpsync/, (besides the git repo you can use if you want) second a package would be a lot of pain for small gain: Many Debian mirrors don't even use Debian as there system.

mirror problems with ftp.debian.org
I had my mirror fail today with the following message: package=source ftp.debian.org:/debian/dists/slink/main/source - /mnt/c/4/debian/dists/slink/main/source Cannot get remote directory listing because: 200 Type set to A. Cannot get remote directory details (/debian/dists/slink/main/source) The binary-i386, and binary-all parts work just fine. It is only when the source section (package) runs that I get this error. I can ftp in with mc and get dirctory listings just fine. Anyone have any idea what the problem is?
