Package: debmirror
Version: 1:2.26
Severity: minor
Hello!
I suppose that file /usr/share/doc/debmirror/examples/debmirror.conf is unclear
and confusing (see e.g. #466801).
It also contains some obsolete variable names.
Thus, there should be more comments and examples in it.
I propose a patch with them.
Best regards,
Alexey
