I'd also like snapshot.debian.org to resume normal operations for Debian
proper. As of today, there should be 48 snapshots for February but there are
only 9. I see this issue regularly via failure mails from my metasnap.d.n
service cron job. This is making software like debbisect less reliable than
they could be.

My hope is, that whatever changes are needed for ports will also fix the rest?

And when you say "some months" it has actually been half a year without a
snapshot for ports:

http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-ports/

This is a truly sad situation.

Thanks for bringing this up (again)!

Resuming snapshot.debian.org for Debian Ports

Hello,

does anyone know whether there are any plans to resume snapshot.debian.org
for Debian Ports?

The service has been unavailable for some months and the lack of snapshots
means that it becomes more difficult to fix the buildd queue once it has become
stuck due to Mini-DAK as used by Debian Ports not supporting cruft [1].

Thanks,
Adrian
